015MISS FRANKLIN AND MELNYK IN FRANKLIN WANT TO HAVE MRS. OWENS BROWN'S AND ANDERSON ON THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE RESPECTFULLY AND I DO MEAN RESPECTFULLY MRS. ANDERSON BUT THE ENTIRE THE ENTIRE TIME I'VE BEEN ON THE BENCH PRC MEETINGS FOR NOW OVER THREE YEARS MRS. ANDERSON HAS SAT ON THIS COMMITTEE IN HER INFLUENCE ALONG WITH THAT OF MRS. REAGAN WHO CHAIRED THE COMMITTEE FOR MANY YEARS HAS BEEN FOR POLICIES WITH WHICH I AND MUCH OF THE PUBLIC DISAGREE THESE POLICIES I BELIEVE HARM HARMED OUR STUDENTS AND CAUSED CHOOSING A GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY OVER THE RIGHTS OF PARENTS. THEREFORE I SUPPORT MRS. MANNING NOT MRS. ANDERSON ON THE PRC BECAUSE FOR HER BRIEF TIME ON THE PREMISES MANNING WORKED ON THE POLICIES TO RETURN SUCH THINGS CELL AND SHE WORKED AGAINST THE HARMFUL BOOK POLICIES THAT MANY ON

016THE SCHOOL BOARD HAVE CHAMPIONED >> AND I ALSO HAVE TO ASK WHY MRS. REAGAN IS BEING PLACED BACK ON A COMMITTEE I CAN'T RECALL IF IT'S GOVERNANCE OR LEGISLATIVE FROM WHICH TO RESIGN JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO SHE DID NOT COMMIT COMMIT, COMMIT COMPLETE HER COMMITTEE OBLIGATION AND YOU QUIT ALSO WRITING NEGATIVELY ABOUT A BOARD MEMBER AND THEN ASKED TO BE RETURNED TO THE COMMITTEE AND APPARENTLY IS BEING ALLOWED TO DO SO I WOULD REMIND EVERYONE THAT SHE ALSO LEFT LAST YEAR A SCHOOL BOARD MEETING AND SO THERE'S THERE'S A PATTERN HERE SO THAT'S THAT I WANT TO ASK WHAT THE PLAN WAS ONE THAT WAS DONE SO NEXT TIME I WANT TO MOVE ON TO COMMENT ON THE DISCUSSION AT THE RETREAT ABOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INEXPENSIVE THE EXPENSIVE CHAT GIPPED SOMETHING THE DIVISION MAY

017BE ASKED TO PROVIDE FOR STUDENTS TO ACCEPT IS AN APP FOR WHICH USER INSERTS PROMPTS SUCH AS FOR PARAGRAPHS OR PAPERS AND THE CHAT THEN WRITES THE PARAGRAPH OR PAPER FOR THE USER. WELL THE SCHOOL DIVISION EMPLOYEE REPRESENTATIVES POSTULATE POSTULATED VERY OPTIMISTICALLY THAT STUDENTS WOULD NEVER CHEAT ON THIS THE WORLD I EFFECT EFFECTIVELY THAT EFFECTIVELY BEGS TO DIFFER. I ALSO FAILS IN THAT THEY'RE EVEN COMMON NICKNAMES FOR THESE FAILURES FOR INSTANCE CHAT, CHAT HAS BEEN KNOWN TO PROVIDE FALSE INFORMATION OR MAKE IT UP AND THEY CALL THAT ONLINE HALLUCINATING IT ALSO CITES OFTEN FALLS FALSE SOURCES FOR INFORMATION AND NON TRANSPARENTLY WRITES VERBIAGE WITH ONLY INFORMATION THE APP ONCE PRESENTED THUS NOT ALLOWING THE STUDENT TO BE EXPOSED TO WAYS TO CONSIDER ALL FACTS CREATE THEIR OWN WORK IN THEIR OWN THOUGHTS. THE WORST PROBLEM

018WITH RELIANCE SUCH ACCEPT IS THAT THESE IS THAT THESE SORT OF APPS HAVE PROVIDED BY THE BOARD GIVES USAGE THAT FAILS THE STUDENT IN THEIR EDUCATION WE ARE ALL HERE TO HAVE THEM HELP THEM CRITICALLY THINK TO REASON TO REASON TO CONSIDER ALL SIDES TO STRUGGLE TO TRY TO FAIL AND THEN TO TRY AND THEN SUCCEED ONE MUST HARNESS THEIR OWN REAL INTELLIGENCE SO THAT THEY WHEN THEY WERE GROWN ARE NOT CONTROLLED BY INTELLIGENCE THAT ARTIFICIAL THERE IS A PLACE FOR A.I. AND FOR AND I URGE THIS BOARD TO CONSIDER ITS USAGE VERY WISELY. THANK YOU OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS DAN CHANG, DAN DAMASKE THEN MATTHEW CODI CONNOR. SALUTATIONS MRS. RANTING AND CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR RECOGNITION FROM THE FAMILY FOUNDATION I'M HERE TO DISCUSS ECONOMIC DISCUSS ECONOMIC REALITIES OF THE SCHOOL DIVISION THIS IS BEING

019ADDRESSED BECAUSE REMARQUE CHAIR MELNIK MADE AT THE RETREAT WHEN SHE RAISED THE POSSIBILITY OF A ONE PERCENT INCREASE IN SALES TAX TO PAY FOR THE SCHOOL DIVISION'S COSTS MRS. ANDERSON ALSO FLOATED THE IDEA OF A TAX INCREASE AT A MEETING WHILE MISS MELNIK MAY HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO ASK, SUCH A REQUEST IS CLEARLY TONE DEAF AS TO THE FINANCIAL BURDENS PLACED ON TAXPAYERS THE CITY OFTEN PARENTS OF VPE CPS CHILDREN DOES THIS SPORT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS TAX IS REGRESSIVE AND WOULD HIT HARDEST THOSE WHO LEAST AFFORD TO PAY WHO CAN AFFORD TO PAY THIS IS DESERVING WHEN ONE REALIZES THAT MANY OF THE STUDENTS LIVE IN A ONE HEAD HOUSEHOLD HOMES AND THAT NINE PERCENT OF OUR POPULATION LIVES AT THE HOOD POVERTY LEVEL A LARGE NUMBER LIVE ABOVE THE LEVEL ARE LEVEL ARE

020STILL BARELY SCRAPING BY ONE REASON MENTIONED AT THE RETREAT FOR THE FINANCIAL STRAIN ON THE DIVISION WAS YOUR MONEY MANAGEMENT DURING LAST TWO OR THREE YEARS WHICH KEPT DIVISION EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS RELATIVELY LOW 451 I DO RESPECT THESE EMPLOYEES BUT THEY DID NOT SEE TRUE THE TRUE INCREASES IN THEIR PREMIUMS AS TAXPAYER SUBSIDIZE THESE INCREASES. THIS IS UNFAIR TO THE TAXPAYERS NOW THE PREMIUMS MUST RISE BUT YOU MAY STILL WANT TAXPAYERS TO SUBSIDIZE TO KEEP THESE PREMIUMS RISING SLOWLY FOR THE DIVISION TAXPAYERS MAY HIT WITH HIGHER SALES TAX. DO NOT ASKED TO RAISE TAXES ON CITIZENS INSTEAD CUT YOUR BLOATED BUDGET ONE MORE TONE DEAF OR REGRESSIVE ECONOMICS. THIS DIVISION ATTEMPTED TO REBUILD THREE SCHOOLS WITH UNNECESSARILY LARGE BUILDINGS FULL OF EXTRANEOUS BELLS AND WHISTLES SUCH AS MOVABLE WALLS, SKYLIGHT WATERFALLS NONE OF THESE

021WHICH INCREASED TO EDUCATE NONE OF THESE INCREASE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES OF THE STUDENTS NONE OF WHICH ENHANCE THE SAFETY OF STUDENTS NONE OF YOUR BUDGET OR BUILDING PLANS CONSIDER VOTERS, CITIZENS OR PARENTS ABILITY TO PAY THE TAXES THIS WOULD >> COST WE THE PEOPLE ARE NOT YOUR PIGGY BANKS WE ARE NOT YOUR SERFS. WE ARE YOUR BOSSES WE HIRED YOU. WE DEMAND THAT YOU MANAGE OUR MONEY PROPERLY. THANK YOU OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS DIAM. LET'S GO BACK THEN MATTHEW CODY CONNOR AND SPEAKER NUMBER FIVE HAD TO CANCEL SO WOW A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE JUNE SCHOOL BOARD MEETING FOR INSTANCE THERE WAS AN ASSASSINATION THAT LEFT TO PEOPLE DEAD THE SHOOTER AND IT IS INNOCENT VICTIM IN THE CROWD IN TWO OTHER INNOCENT VICTIMS CRITICALLY INJURED ON A DIFFERENT NOTE, TWO STATES ARE NOW MANDATING

022THAT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS BE DISPLAYED IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS THESE TWO EVENTS OR AT OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE SPECTRUM ONE EVENT HAS TOTAL DISREGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE WHILE THE OTHER PROMOTES HUMAN LIFE. PEOPLE ARE YEARNING FOR A MORAL COMPASS. SOME REALIZE THEY NEED GUIDANCE WHILE OTHERS ARE SO LOST THAT THEY BELIEVE TAKING ANOTHER PERSON'S LIFE IS JUSTIFIED. SO JUST RECENTLY I SPOKE WITH A SECURITY RESOURCE OFFICER WHO TOLD ME THEY CALLED FOR CHILDREN WITH WEAPONS TO WITH HANDGUNS TOO WITH KNIVES ISN'T IT REMARKABLE THAT THIS PERSON ACTUALLY PREVENTED A POTENTIAL TRAGEDY. I MEAN IF THESE CHILDREN HAD CARRIED OUT THEIR PLANS, THEIR ACTIONS MIGHT HAVE HARMED SOMEONE WE ALL KNOW AND LOVE WHILE THE SECURITY RESOURCE OFFICER DIPRIVAN A TRAGEDY, IT WAS REALLY IT WAS A REACTIVE MEASURE TO WHAT THESE CHILDREN HAD ALREADY CONCEIVED IN

023THEIR MINDS THIS BRINGS ME TO THE IMPORTANCE OF A PROACTIVE APPROACH A TOPIC THAT I'VE BEEN ADVOCATING FOR THE PAST YEAR. WHAT THESE FOUR CHILDREN HAD A MORAL COMPASS AND RECOGNIZED AT SAID WOW YOU KNOW WHAT THEY WERE PLANNING WAS WRONG AND THEY NEVER THE WEAPONS TO SCHOOL. THE PRIMARY REASON TO WELL THIS IS WHERE THE NATIONAL SCHOOL CHAPLAINCY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE ASSOCIATION CAN HELP HEARTS AND MINDS OF PEOPLE STARTING AT A YOUNG AGE THE PRIMARY REASON TO HIRE SCHOOL CHAPLAINS IS SCHOOL SAFETY DATA SHOWS THAT MOST MASS SHOOTINGS ARE PLANNED MEANING THERE'S TIME FOR INTERVENTION. HOWEVER, STUDENTS OFTEN VOID THERAPY SERVICES DUE TO THE STIGMA AND FEAR THAT CONSULTATIONS WILL APPEAR ON THEIR TRANSCRIPTS TALKING TO A CHAPLAIN CARRIES NO STIGMA. THE INFORMALITY CAN ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO OPEN

024UP WHEN THEY ARE OTHERWISE WOULDN'T WOULDN'T WOULDN'T DO IT. CHAPLAINCY IS A NON-THREATENING SOLUTION THE NEXT MISSION IS TO PROVIDE SPIRITUAL CARE IN PUBLIC EDUCATION TO ALL PEOPLE AT ALL TIME TIMES REPRESENTING CHRIST AND MAKING A DIFFERENCE THAT CAN BE FELT IN OUR SOCIETY, IN OUR SOCIETY THE BENEFITS OF CHAPLIN'S ARE PROVEN AND SHOULD NO LONGER BE IGNORED OR WITHHELD FROM OUR SCHOOLS. I'D LIKE TO MENTION THAT CHAPLIN THE CHAPLAIN POSITION CAN BE EITHER PAID OR A VOLUNTARY POSITION IT IS WHATEVER THE STATE DECIDES TEXAS DECIDED TO COMPENSATE THEIR CHAPLAINS WHILE FLORIDA HAS MADE IT A VOLUNTARY ROLE. SO UNTIL NEXT TIME TEAM UP CHANGE THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE STARTING AT A YOUNG AGE BY IMPLEMENTING THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHAPLAINCY PROGRAM. THANK OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS MATTHEW CODY. COME MY LAST SPEECH I SAID

025SOMETHING UNTRUE I SAID THAT THIS MAN HAD RECEIVED MONEY FROM THE SBM WHILE MISMANAGED GIVEN THE MONEY AND MONEY AND SHE WORKS FOR THEM AS A DIRECTOR AND SHE TRIES TO SELL THEIR SERVICES SHE HAS NOT RECEIVED MONEY FROM THEM AS OF NOW SO I APOLOGIZE FOR MY UNTRUE STATEMENTS WHEN YOU SPREAD MISINFORMATION MAKE A MISTAKE. IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU APOLOGIZE TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. I'M A BIG ENOUGH PERSON TO DO THAT I WONDER MRS. MANNING IF YOU ARE YOU ARE YOU SEE I'VE BEEN READING ARTICLES FOR RESTORATION OF AMERICA HERE TODAY'S PTA AS A TOOL OF THE RADICAL LEFT THIS IS WHERE YOU ATTACK THE PTA. THE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION THAT'S BEEN AROUND FOR OVER 120 YEARS. THAT'S ABOUT INVOLVING AND GIVING VOICES TO PARENTS AND EDUCATION. I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALL ABOUT PARENTAL RIGHTS

026OR IS THAT JUST THE PARENTS WOULD AGREE WITH YOU BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THIS SEEMS WHAT KID NEEDS PARENTS WHEN GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS DISH OUT EVERYTHING FROM DINNER TO HORMONES YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT SPREADING SLANDER AND MISINFORMATION SCHOOLS NOT GIVING OUT HORMONES YOU LITERALLY WROTE A WROTE A WHOLE ARTICLE TRYING TO CONVINCE PEOPLE THAT PROVIDING ACCESS TO FOOD AND MEDICAL SERVICES FOR CHILDREN IN NEED IS A BAD THING. THAT'S A SHAME CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS ARE THE TIP OF THE SPEAR FOR CHEMICAL CASTRATION RADICAL GENDER IDEOLOGY THIS IS WHERE YOU SPREAD MISINFORMATION ABOUT MY FAMILY MY CHILD HER HEALTH HER HEALTH CARE. PEOPLE LIKE HER IS MEDICAL DEMONIZE PATIENTS AND DOCTORS AND FAMILIES THAT ARE JUST TRYING TO DO THE BEST FOR HER CHILDREN STOP THE CULT OF GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS DOESN'T SOUND LIKE YOU'RE HERE TO SURFACE AND

027SUPPORT GOVERNMENTS OR PUBLIC SCHOOLS YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE PUBLIC SCHOOLS SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE HERE TO TEAR THEM APART NOW I HOPE YOU FAIL IN YOUR ENDEAVORS HARM OTHERS I DON'T I DON'T WISH YOU ANY HARM. I YOU MEET PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCES THAT WILL HELP WILL HELP YOU PUT DOWN THIS FEAR THAT YOU'RE CARRYING AROUND THE WORDS OF THESE ARTICLES AREN'T THE WORDS OF SOMEBODY SPEAKING TRUTH OR LOVER OR UNDERSTANDING. I'VE STUDIED THE TEACHINGS CHRIST WHOM YOU CAN'T SAY YOU FOLLOW IN THOSE AREN'T HIS WORDS EITHER THESE ARE THE WORDS OF FEAR AND HATE MONGER TRYING SOW DISCORD TRYING TO PICK PEOPLE AGAINST EACH OTHER AND OTHER AND TRYING TO TEAR OUR COMMUNITIES PART. I STRUGGLED READING YOUR WORDS REMEMBER WHO I AM TO HOLD STRONG TO LOVE DID NOT GIVE IN TO FEAR AND ANGER

028I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE DIFFICULTIES AND THE DANGERS CREATED FOR MY FAMILY BY PEOPLE LIKE YOU BUT I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO CHANGE I WILL NOT ALLOW MYSELF TO BE INFECTED BY YOUR HATE IT HAS NO PLACE IN OUR SOCIETY, HAS NO PLACE THE SCHOOL BOARD OR A POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE AND WILL GIVE IT NO PLACE IN MY HEART AND I HOPE SOMEDAY FIND A WAY TO DO THE SAME. WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ONTO OUR ONLINE SPEAKERS OUR. OUR FIRST SPEAKER IS KIM OH PLEASE UNMUTED EVENING.

I'M PLEASED TO SHARE SUCCESSFULLY OPTED MY SECOND GRADER OUT HER PERFORMANCE PROVED PARENTS NEED BETTER REPORTING VISIBILITY ON CHROMEBOOK USAGE NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GIFTED

029PROGRAM WE HAVE NICE OPPORTUNITY TO TRANSFORM PUBLIC SCHOOL INTO A SATELLITE CAMPUS FOR GIFTED LEARNERS ODIASE PUBLIC INSTITUTION MONOPOLIZING RESOURCES FROM OTHER PUBLIC SCHOOLS. FIFTY SEVEN PERCENT OF OUR DIVISIONS GIFTED BUDGET IS SPENT ON WHICH ONLY SERVES 11 ELEVEN PERCENT OF THE GIFTED POPULATION THIS IS HIGHLY PROBLEMATIC THERE ARE THERE ARE VERY FEW GIFTED STANDALONE SCHOOLS AND BEAUTIFUL NEW HAMPSHIRE MATH AND VIRGINIA STATES KNOWN STRONG PUBLIC SCHOOLS NOBODY. NOBODY CAN MAKE THE ARGUMENT ODESA THE MOST HIGHLY SCORING AND SO-CALLED DESERVING GIFTED KIDS ANYMORE AFTER THE SPRING TWENTY TWENTY THREE ADMISSION SCANDAL WHERE IS THE DATA ODIOUS IS BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE. DR. OUR TOLD US BETTER TO HAVE SEVERAL OR NO GIFTED SCHOOLS WHICH MAKES SENSE STUDIES ON THE EFFECTS OF STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES YOU'RE NOT CORRELATE WITH OTHER LONG TERM NONACADEMIC OUTCOMES

030SUCH CRIME EARNINGS, LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION, PHYSICAL ALTRUISM OR HAPPINESS ACCORDING TO RESEARCH CITED BY SCHOLAR DEANGELIS SINCE SENSE WE'RE ADDING AN ADDITIONAL ODIASE CLASS WHICH WAS A GOOD IDEA BUT A BAND-AID SOLUTION THOSE FROM THE SAMPLE OF RISING THIRD GRADERS NOT SELECTED ODIASE SHOULD BE GIVEN CHOICE OF OPEN ENROLLMENT FOR EXAMPLE, IF A STUDENT VACATES KINGSTON ELEMENTARY FOR ODIASE SOMEONE FROM HERMITAGE SHOULD CHOICE TO FILL THAT SPOTTED KINGSTON SO THEIR CHILD'S GIFTED NEEDS CAN BE BETTER MET THERE'S NO UNIFORMITY ON DELIVERY SERVICES IS GREAT FOR IS GREAT FOR GIFTED LEARNERS AND MANY OTHER SCHOOLS NOT DESIGNED FOR GIFTED KIDS DUE IN PART TO A HIGH PERCENTAGE PERFORMING BELOW GRADE LEVEL AND GETTING THE ATTENTION THIS NECESSITATES THE FORMATION OF GIFTED SATELLITES AUDIENCE IS NOT PHILLIPS AND OVER OR A PRIVATE SCHOOL PRIVATE SCHOOLS SHOULD BE

031ABLE TO DO WHAT THEY WANT WITHIN REASON BUT RESOURCES SHOULD NOT BE HARMED BY ONE PUBLIC TAXPAYER FUNDED SCHOOL SOME FAMILIES MAY FACE FINANCIAL HARDSHIP HAVING TO PAY FOR PRIVATE SCHOOL OR HOME SCHOOL TO FREE OUR ZONED GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS TO MEET OUR STUDENTS GIFTED NEEDS NO ONE SUGGESTING TURNING THE BUILDING INTO APARTMENT HOUSING. ODIASE COULD BE A SATELLITE CAMPUS FOR GIFTED LEARNERS SERVING A GREATER POPULATION UNJUST 11 OUT OF A HUNDRED OR THE BUILDING COULD BE REPURPOSED BY ANOTHER SCHOOL LED SOMEDAY FUND FIND THE CHILDREN NOT THIS ONE GIFTED SCHOOL THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND MADAM CHAIR THE SPEAKER IS NOT ONLINE SO OUR SPEAKERS ARE DONE FOR THIS .

THE INFORMATION CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE BECAUSE WE WERE ONE OF THE CATEGORIES THAT REQUIRE CONSENT FOR AND THERE'S SOME CHANGES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THE EDITORS NOTES AND THE LEGAL REFERENCES BUT THOSE ARE THE ONLY RECOMMENDED CHANGES TO FIVE POLICY FIVE FIFTY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON PAR SIXTY SEVEN FIVE SEVENTY THREE THIS VOTER REGISTRATION WE DID LOOK AT THIS SCHOOL BOARD MEETING WITH WHAT BROUGHT WALKED BACK JUST TO CLARIFY THE LANGUAGE ON THIS YOU'LL SEE ON THE SECOND IT'S ACTUALLY THE THIRD SENTENCE NOW WITH THE SUPERINTENDENT DESTINY IS AUTHORIZED TO DEVELOP SUCH PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS UNTIL THE

043ALLOW FOR SECONDARY SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHERS APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT TEACHING AND LEARNING DETAIL AND THE VOTER REGISTRATION ELECTIONS OFFICE FOR CONDUCT ROAD REGISTRATION PROGRAMS FOR HIGH SCHOOL AND ADULT EDUCATION PROGRAMS. SO THE AFTER TRYING TO SAY IS TEACHERS WOULD BE QUALIFIED EASIER JUST LEAVE IT AS A SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER WHO BEEN APPROVED BECAUSE HOSTAGE COULD CHANGE. OTHER THAN THAT THOSE ARE THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR POLICY FIVE SEVENTY THREE ARE THE QUESTIONS ON FIVE SEVENTY THREE. I'M CURIOUS AS TO WHY THE NONPARTISAN WAS STRICKEN I I DON'T I THINK NO PERSON HAD TO DO WITH VOTER REGISTRATION PROGRAMS AND DIDN'T SEEM BE APPROPRIATE IN FRONT OF THE VOTER REGISTRATION ELECTIONS OFFICE SAYS THAT'S THE OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT OFFICE. OK, I THINK IT USED TO READ NONPARTISAN VOTER REGISTRATION PROGRAMS THAT WERE CIVILIAN GROUPS THAT WERE OUT THERE DOING

044IT AND I THINK THAT WE SAID INSERTED THE OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT AGENCY INSTEAD OF ANY OTHER PEOPLE COULD BE OUT THERE. WELL, AGAIN, AS YOU CAN PROBABLY IMAGINE I'M VERY INTERESTED IN REINFORCING THE NONPARTIZAN NATURE OF THIS I DO THINK IT'S LIMITED AT THIS POINT TO APPROVED SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER AND THE OFFICIAL VOTER REGISTRATION OFFICE SO I THINK THAT'S BASICALLY GOING TO BE NONPARTISAN THERE WILL NOT BE ANY OTHER GROUPS INTO INTO OUR SCHOOLS TO BE ABLE TO DO VOTER REGISTRATION PROGRAMS I'M SORRY MRS BROWN THAT CLARIFY YES. THE PURPOSE OF THE CHANGE IS TO ENSURE THAT ARE OR SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHERS ARE ABLE TO AS PART OF THEIR CURRICULUM TELL STUDENTS THAT THEY CAN REGISTER TO VOTE AND THE REGISTRAR'S OFFICE CAN CONDUCT IT AND THAT OTHER CAN COME IN. I DID HAVE A QUESTION

045FOR CLARITY WHEN MR. CALLAN'S DONE TO OK I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THE LANGUAGE IN HERE DOESN'T ALLOW FOR SOCIAL STUDIES TO BRING IN SOME OF THOSE APPROVED SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHERS TO STILL BRING IN SOME OF THOSE GROUPS BECAUSE THAT WOULD DEFINITELY NOT MEET THE INTENTIONALITY AS I WAS JUST REREADING IT AGAIN I HAVE SOME CONCERNS THERE I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE TEACHING WOULD BE . I THINK THAT WAS WILL DEAL WITH DO TALK TO TAKE A LOOK AT A LOOK AT THAT BECAUSE THEY CAN YEAH. YOUR CONCERN IS THAT A GUEST SPEAKER WOULD COME IN THAT WASN'T NEUTRAL TRYING TO PUSH AN AGENDA ALL GUEST SPEAKERS HAVE TO BE APPROVED AND WE HAVE TO COMPLY WITH THE POLICY ON CONTROVERSIAL INSTRUCTION OR MATERIAL DELIVERY. YEAH, I GUESS I HAVE MR. QUINN TELLING US

046WAS I COULD BE WORRYING ABOUT THIS BUT I THINK HE SAID THEY BASICALLY SHOW YOU HOW TO GO ONLINE AND DO IT YOURSELF IT REALLY ISN'T PUSHING ANYTHING NOT BEING OUTSIDE OF POLITICAL PARTIES SHOW YOU. THEY SHOW YOU HOW HOW ONE GOES ONLINE TO DO THAT AND THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE. I I BELIEVE THAT MY CONCERN IS NOW THAT I'M READING THIS AGAIN IS THAT THE EXACT INTENTIONALITY OF THE CONCERNS THAT I HAD NOW STILL EXISTS BECAUSE IS I AM CONCERNED ABOUT AN AGENDA PUSHED AND I GET THE CONTROVERSIAL POLICIES AND STUFF BUT I THINK SOMETIME IT GOES DOWN TO WHO'S REALLY EVALUATING WHAT'S NONPARTIZAN OR NOT NONPARTISAN AND WHO'S TAKING A LOOK AT THAT. YOU KNOW A GROUP THAT I MAY NOT VIEW OR SPEAKER THAT I MAY NOT VIEW AS PARTIZAN ONE OF

047MY COLLEAGUES UP HERE MAY HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION AND VICE VERSA. AND SO I DON'T KNOW I JUST I DON'T KNOW THAT I THOUGHT THAT THE INITIAL LANGUAGE ACTUALLY WAS BETTER I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M CLEAR BECAUSE GIVE YOU THE SCHOOL PERSPECTIVE I HEAR GUEST HEAR GUEST SPEAKER BUT THIS VOTER REGISTRATION SO ARE YOU ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT WHO COMES INTO REGISTER IN THOSE SOCIAL STUDIES CLASSROOMS? TYPICALLY THAT PERSON IT COMES IN IS APPROVED BY THE PRINCIPAL GIVEN LOCATION TO CONDUCT THOSE REGISTRATIONS IT WON'T TAKE PLACE DURING ONE GOVERNMENT TEACHERS 90 MINUTE LESSON THEY WILL CONDUCT THAT VOTER REGISTRATION SO TYPICALLY IS TYPICALLY IS NOT IN MY EXPERIENCE INVOLVING SOMEBODY ELSE COMING IN TO REGISTER STUDENTS IN A CLASSROOM IN THEN GIVE A POLITICAL SPEECH ON WHO THEY SHOULD THEN VOTE FOR IN

048THE PAST WE PROVIDE A LOCATION STUDENTS ARE STUDENTS ARE GIVEN A DOCUMENT OR A FORM THEY AND FILL OUT THE REGISTER AND THAT IS IT AS A PRINCIPAL OF A HIGH SCHOOL THAT DON'T OFTEN IN OUR LUNCH PERIODS WHEN KIDS PERIODS WHEN KIDS WOULD COME THROUGH THE VOTER REGISTRATION GROUP THERE TO HELP THEM WALK THEM WALK THROUGH THAT PROCESS SO THAT ONLY BE THE VOTER REGISTRATION AND ELECTIONS OFFICE AND THE SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER WITH THEIR APPROVED CURRICULUM OR COULD THAT BE A GROUP THAT THE PRINCIPAL COULD DEEM AS NONPARTISAN BECAUSE THAT IS KNOW NONPARTISAN AGAIN THERE ARE SOME ORGANIZATIONS SOME ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE NONPARTISAN WITH A PARTISANLY I'LL LET YOU FROM THIS THEN I'M WONDERING IF WE SUBSTITUTE ONE WORD THAT THIS MAY SOLVE A PROBLEM. THE SUPERINTENDENT OR DESIGNEE IS AUTHORIZED TO DEVELOP SUCH

049PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS UNTIL NOW ONLY FOR ONLY SECONDARY SOCIAL STUDIES TEACHER IS APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT TEACHING AND LEARNING AND THE VOTER REGISTRATION ELECTIONS OFFICE TO CONDUCT VOTER REGISTRATION. WOULD THAT SOLVE THAT THAT FIXES THANK YOU. IF THAT'S AN IF THAT'S AN ACCEPTABLE ONE TO THE BOARD WE CAN TAKE THAT. SO MISS OWENS THAT NOT ONLY TAKES CARE OF IT I DON'T AGREE WITH MR. BROWN ABOUT THE INTENTION WHEN WE RETURN IT WE DID IT IN THAT SOUNDS LIKE IT DID OK, MISS ANDERSON SO I JUST WANT TO DO FOR THE RECORD MR. CARLIN KNOW THAT I WAS NOT IN FAVOR OF ELIMINATING THE WORD NONPARTIZAN I FEEL THAT THERE ARE ORGANIZATIONS OUT THERE I.E. FOR EXAMPLE THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS WHO ARE VERY NONPARTISAN BUT I FELT LIKE WE YOU KNOW, WE COULD

050HAVE LEFT THOSE WORDS IN THERE AND IT WAS FINE BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN GOING TO SCHOOL FOR SEVERAL YEARS THEY HAVE GONE INTO OUR SCHOOLS LIKE DURING LUNCH TIME AND THEY DON'T SWAY THE CHILDREN. THEY JUST EXPLAIN YOU KNOW HOW TO FILL TO FILL OUT THE FORM AND BASICALLY SOMETIMES EVEN HELP THEM WRITE THEIR NAME AND CURSIVE. NO, I'M SERIOUS SO YOU HAVE IT HAPPENS THERE ARE SOME CHILDREN DON'T USE CURSIVE WRITING AND SO THEY FORGET HOW TO RIGHT THEIR NAME INCLUSIVE CURSIVE SO BUT ANYWAY BUT THE NONPARTISAN PART DIDN'T BOTHER ME. IT BOTHERED MY COLLEAGUES SO WE WE WORK TOGETHER AND CAME UP WITH THIS LANGUAGE MISMATCHING YEAH SO I JUST WANT TO WANT TO BE CLEAR UNDER THIS ORGANIZATION'S LIKE THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COME IN. OK,

051THANK THANK YOU AND I WOULD JUST LIKE TO ADD IS SOMEBODY WHO HAS SAT AT A TABLE DURING LUNCH AND REGISTERED KIDS TO VOTE. WE IT VERY LITTLE DONE BECAUSE MOST OF THE STUDENTS DO NOT KNOW THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE THAT IN ORDER TO REGISTER TO VOTE. AND SO IT KIND OF SQUASHED RIGHT THERE SO. SO THERE'S VERY FEW KIDS THE ONCE IT COULD REACH THEIR PARENT TO FIND OUT THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER OF THE ONES THAT ARE REGISTERED SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I THANK YOU FOR POLICY 573 DEBATE FIVE SEVENTY THREE WAIT. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE GOOD WITH THE LANGUAGE. AM I GETTING SOME HAD NOT ON THE LANGUAGE THAT THIS CAN COME YOU WANT TO SUBSTITUTE THE WORD ONLY FOR THE WORD FOR AND

052THEN YOU SAY VOTE ON THAT TONIGHT AND THEN I'M SORRY THIS INFORMATION I'LL BRING BACK NEXT SO WE'RE GOOD ECONOMY DOESN'T HAVE TO GO BACK OK YOU CAN, YOU CAN GO THE LAST ONE LAST ONE SIX TWENTY SCHOOL DIVISIóN CURRICULUM CIRCULATION CURRICULUM THERE'S ONLY ONE WORD CHANGE IN THE LAST SENTENCE WHICH WILL BE EACH CURRICULUM IS COMPOSED OF OF ANY SCHOOL BOARD APPROVED OBJECTIVES BECAUSE AS WE TALKED LAST TIME WE ORIGINALLY WE'RE GOING TO TAKE OUR SCHOOL BOARD APPROVED OBJECTIVES ON THE OFF CHANCE THAT YOU DO AT THE BACK IN AS WE DISCUSSED TO DEPART MEANING WE'RE MEETING, WE'RE NOT USING INDIVIDUAL SCHOOL OBJECTIVES BUT SHOULD YOU PUT THEM IN THE FUTURE? THE THE POLICY REVIEW DECIDED WE WOULD LOVE TO THE WORD FOR WORD ANY FOR THE MINERS SCRIVNER CHANGES AND THAT THERE ARE

053NO RECOMMENDED OTHER CHANGES TO POLICY SIX TWENTY SEVEN QUESTIONS AND THAT WOULD BE THE END OF THE PRC RECOMMENDATIONS TO JULY MY THANKS TO THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE FOR THIS WORK AND NOW WE WELCOME MR. MATTHEW DELANEY CHIEF OF SCHOOLS OFFICER ON OUR TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE CALENDAR REVISIONS GOOD EVENING CHAIRWOMEN MELNIK VICE CHAIR FRANKLIN MEMBERS OF THE SCHOOL BOARD. DR. ROBERTSON, AS YOU MAY RECALL DURING THE SCHOOL BOARD RETREAT A QUESTION WAS ASKED REGARDING CONSIDERATION FOR REVISIONS TO THE TWENTY TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE SCHOOL CALENDAR TO INCLUDE INGESTED ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS DUE TO THE INCREASE DEMANDS OF MANDATORY TEACHER TRAINING FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR ROBERTSON SHARED THAT WE WILL BRING WILL BRING A RECOMMENDATION OF DAYS AFTER MEETING WITH SEVERAL STAKEHOLDER GROUPS. I'M HERE TODAY TO PROVIDE RECOMMENDATION FOR FOR JUST A DISMISSAL

054DAYS TO BE UTILIZED IN THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR. I WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TOUCH ON THE REQUIRED TRAINING THAT TEACHERS MUST COMPLETE IN THE UPCOMING YEAR A LOT OF THIS IS NOT NEW BUT I'M GOING TO GO INTO SOME DETAIL REGARDING IT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHERS MUST COMPLETE TRAINING AS REQUIRED BY THE VIRGINIA LITERACY ACT. THE TRAINING INVOLVES THE COMPLETION SEVERAL VIDEO CREATED MODULES. WE ESTIMATE THE TIME FOR COMPLETING EACH MODULES IS APPROXIMATELY THREE HOURS THE TRAINING WAS INITIALLY SUPPOSED TO BE AVAILABLE IN AS OF THIS TIME THE TRAINING IS TRAINING IS NOT AVAILABLE TO STAFF AND FURTHERMORE VALLET TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR SOME TEACHERS HAS CHANGED SINCE THE LAST CALENDAR MEETING I WAS APPROVED AND SINCE THE SCHOOL YEAR ENDED THESE CHANGES THE PRIMARY REASON PRIMARY REASON FOR OUR REQUEST TODAY

055SHE IS PREPARED TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE REGARDING HER CONVERSATIONS AROUND THE L.A. STAFF ARE ALSO REQUIRED A COMPLETE ANNUAL MANDATORY EMPLOYEE TRAINING OR AMEET THIS TRAINING IS BASED ON FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS, STATE REQUIREMENTS AND AS MEANS TO REDUCE LIABILITY LET'S SAY THIS SAY THIS IS NOT NEW BUT I WILL TALK TO YOU ABOUT HOW HOW MUCH IS REQUIRED TO GET DONE TEACHERS ARE REQUIRED TO THEIR REQUIRED TRAINING MODULES I'M SORRY. THEY'RE REQUIRED TRAINING MODULES BASED WHETHER YOU'RE RETURNING OR NEW TEACHER TRAINING MODULES INCLUDE I'M NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH THEM ALL BUT THEY INCLUDE TOPICS SUCH A CHILD ABUSE, MANDATORY REPORTING CPR CLASSROOM, CLASSROOM SAFETY, EMAIL MESSAGE SAFETY TITLE NONCOMPLIANCE WORKPLACE BULLYING, WORKPLACE BULLYING AND THAT'S JUST TO NAME A FEW IT'S IMPORTANT TO AVAILABLE ONLINE FOR RETURNING TEACHERS AND FOR OUR RETURNING TEACHERS

056AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO TEST OUT OF SOME OF THE MODULES ANNUAL MANDATORY EMPLOYEE TRAINING DOES REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME TO COMPLETE WHEN IN TOTALITY FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR WE PUSH BACK DEADLINE FOR COMPLETION DUE TO THE OTHER TRAINING REQUIREMENTS AND WE PLAN TO HAVE THE TRAINING AVAILABLE FOR STAFF BY THE END OF THIS WEEK YOU'VE RECEIVED INFORMATION ON THE FINAL THREE BULLETS DURING PRESENTATIONS FROM DR. GORDON MR. HARRIS TO ITS CULTURAL COMPETENCY TRAINING VIDEO REQUIRED WE REQUIRED SEIZURE, YOUR TRAINING AND ESSENTIAL TRAININGS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING TO BE CLEAR, THE ESSENTIAL AND PROVIDED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING ARE IN MOST CASES FINALIZED PRIOR TO THE STARTED SCHOOL YEAR SCHOOL YEAR AS THESE SESSIONS ARE DESIGNED TO ENSURE TEACHERS HAVE WHAT THEY NEED TO EFFECTIVELY PLAN, TEACH,

057ASSESS RESPOND WHEN STUDENTS ARRIVE AND. AND IT'S ALSO A SPRINGBOARD FOR FUTURE TRAININGS IN THEIR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES AND OTHER COLLABORATE OPPORTUNITIES SO AS A RESULT OF THESE ITEMS WE BELIEVE THAT REVISING THE TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE SCHOOL CALENDAR TO INCLUDE FOUR JUST A DISMISSAL DAYS WILL ALLEVIATE BURDEN ON TEACHERS AS YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE FOUR PROPOSED DATES TWO IN FIRST SEMESTER AND TO IN THE SECOND SEMESTER EXCUSE ME WILL GO IN GREATER DETAIL IN THE UPCOMING SLIDES BUT I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT WE RECEIVED INPUT AND FEEDBACK FROM TEACHER GROUPS THE DIRECTORS OF THE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION CENTER IN THE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY CENTER AS WELL AS CENTRAL SUPPORT LEADERS TO LAND ON THESE DATES WE'RE RECOMMENDING FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4TH, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11TH THURSDAY MARCH, MARCH 13TH AND THURSDAY APRIL 3RD ADJUSTED

058DISMISSAL DAYS SO LET'S TAKE A TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THESE DATES THE FIRST DATE IS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4TH WHICH JUST FOR YOUR OWN KNOWN IS A BUSY DAY ON THE SECONDARY LEVEL ALTHOUGH WE DON'T PREFER ADJUSTED DISMISSAL ON FRIDAYS OFTEN BECAUSE SOMETIMES STAFF VACANCIES AND SO FORTH WE BELIEVE THIS MAKES THE MOST SENSE DUE TO THE STAFF DAY ON MONDAY OCTOBER SEVENTH THIS ESSENTIALLY PROVIDES TEACHERS WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY WORK ON MANDATORY TRAINING FOR THREE HOURS ON THE FRIDAY WILL ALSO HAVE AN ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES ON MONDAY THE OCTOBER THE SEVEN WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 11TH IS IN A DAY THIS IS I'LL GO OFF SCRIPT A LITTLE BIT BUT SOMETIMES WE WE ARE TOLD THAT WE DON'T LISTEN TO TEACHERS I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF WHERE TEACHERS GREAT INPUT ON THIS DATE INITIALLY

059A RECOMMENDATION WAS MADE FOR MONDAY DECEMBER 9TH AND ONE OF OUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER SAID CAN WE NOT DO MONDAY NIGHT MOST OF OUR DAYS OFF FOR MONDAYS OUR KIDS THAT GO TO MUSIC AND ART ON MONDAYS TYPICALLY MISS THAT DAD. CAN WE MOVE TO WEDNESDAY THE 11 THE OTHER TEACHERS AND PEOPLE SAID YEAH, WE CAN DO THAT SO THAT'S THE RATIONALE FOR WEDNESDAY THE ELEVENTH IN SUMMARY WE HAVE AN ADJUSTED DISMISSAL BOTH THE FIRST NINE WEEKS IN OCTOBER AND THE SECOND NINE WEEKS FOR A TOTAL OF TWO IN THE FIRST SEMESTER YOU SEE WE BALANCED AND A DAY AND A B IN BOTH OF THOSE BECAUSE WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 11TH IS AN EIGHT DAY MOVING ON TO THE SECOND SEMESTER AGAIN THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE FEEDBACK WE RECEIVED FROM ARE DIRECTORS THE TECHNICAL

060CAREER EDUCATION CENTER AS WELL AS ATC. THEY ASSETS IF WE COULD PLEASE LEAVE THE FRONT END OF MARCH 10TH WEEK ALONE BECAUSE THEY ARE DOING TESTING ON THE 11TH AND 12TH AND AGREEABLE TO THE 13TH THIRTEENTH THURSDAY TO BE ANOTHER ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAY AND THAT IS AN EIGHT DAY AND THEN THE FINAL ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DATE THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING IS THURSDAY APRIL 3RD WHICH IS A B AND IS ALSO THE FINAL DAY OF THE THIRD NINE WEEKS AS SEE ON THE SCREEN FRIDAY OCTOBER 4TH AS A STAFF DAY AND ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAY WILL ALLOW FOR STAFF TO WORK ON REQUIRED TRAINING MODULES FINALIZED GRADES AND BEGIN PLANNING FOR THE FINAL NINE WEEKS ON BOTH APRIL THIRD AND THE FOURTH I DO WANT TO NOTE IS AS YOU'RE LOOKING THE SCREEN THERE BECAUSE OFTEN PEOPLE ASK YOU

061WILL SEE THAT SPRING BREAK DOES NOT START THAT FOLLOWING WEEK IT STARTS THE WEEK AFTER. SO WE DON'T ANTICIPATE A BUNCH OF STAFF ABSENCES AS THEY PREPARE TO START THAT FINAL NINE WEEKS I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION WILL TELL YOU SINCE THE RETREAT SEVERAL TEACHERS SEVERAL TEACHERS AND PRINCIPALS SHARED THEIR APPRECIATION THAT WE WOULD EVEN CONSIDER THIS OPTION . WE'VE WORKED REALLY HARD WITH OUR PRINCIPLES OF SPECIFICALLY ON THE ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL LEVEL TO DRIVE A CALENDAR AND A SCHEDULE THAT CAN PROVIDE THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR TEACHERS THROUGH OUR USE OF OUR SUBSTITUTES COLLABORATION DAYS THEY. THEY JUST FEEL LIKE THIS ADDITIONAL REALLY BRING ADDITIONAL COMFORT THE COMFORT. THE LAST THING I WILL SHARE YOU KNOW WE HAVE MAP CHANGE CHANGES TO THE CURRICULUM OTHER IS GOING TO REQUIRE NON STAFF

062DAYS TO PROVIDE SOME SUPPORT FOR OUR TEACHERS SO AT THIS TIME MYSELF IN THIS YEAR ARE PREPARED TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS MAY HAVE MISS OWENS AND THEN MISS MANNING THANK YOU. I WANT TO THANK DR. ROBERTS AND SENIOR ADMIN FOR WORKING TOGETHER, GETTING THE INPUT AND BRINGING SOMETHING TO CONSIDER. BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I HAD TALKED WITH DR. OPERATES ABOUT BEING CONCERNED FIGURING OUT HOW MANY UNPAID HOURS ARE TEACHING STAFF WAS GOING TO HAVE TO PUT IN TO MAKE THIS WORK WITH ALL THESE NEW TRAININGS COMING DOWN THE PIKE AND THE FACT THAT YOU'RE TELLING US TODAY THAT STILL THAT THE VALET TRAINING AND SOME OF THE TRAININGS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THEM YET TO KIND OF GET THAT JUMP ON ALTHOUGH THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE UNPAID WORK HOURS TO THE FACT THAT THEY

063CAN'T EVEN DETERMINE WHEN UNPAID WORK HOURS COULD HAVE BEEN THIS REALLY HELPS TO THE BUFFER THAT AND TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE RECOGNIZE THEY HAVE A LOT ON THEIR PLATES ALREADY THAT THE GIVEN STAFF DAYS THAT WERE IN THE CALENDAR WERE PROVIDED IN ADVANCE BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THEY HAVE GRADING AND PLANNING AND THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON AND THAT THE ADDITIONAL WORKLOAD OF NEW TRAINING REQUIRES SOME ADDITIONAL TIME THAT WE DON'T THINK THEY JUST HAVE TIME THAT THEY'RE TWIDDLING THEIR THUMBS IN A CLASSROOM SO I APPRECIATE THESE RECOMMENDATIONS AND I'M HOPEFUL THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO VOTE THEM TO APPROVE NEXT MEETING THANK YOU SO I SO I FOUGHT VERY HARD TO GET RID OF HALF DAYS IN OUR CALENDAR BECAUSE AS A PARENT I SAW HOW IT NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE STUDENTS

064ESPECIALLY THOSE STUDENTS WHO GO TO SPECIALTY PROGRAMS. THAT'S FULL DAY THAT THEY'RE LOSING OF WHAT FOR FULL DAYS THAT THEY'RE LOSING OF INSTRUCTION ARE A CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION CENTER ATC AND I KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS AND THAT'S I FOUGHT SO HARD AGAINST THIS BECAUSE WHAT I DIDN'T HEAR IN THIS PRESENTATION AS THE FACT THAT STUDENTS ARE LOSING INSTRUCTION TIME AND FOR THAT REASON I CANNOT SUPPORT THIS. THANK YOU IF YOU DON'T MIND IS BAD. I ALMOST FEEL LIKE A HYPOCRITE WHEN I HAVE THIS CONVERSATION BECAUSE WE DO PREFER FULL DAYS WE DO AND WHEN WE MADE THE CALENDAR WE TRIED TO DO OUR BEST TO ENSURE IT WASN'T THERE AND WITH SOME OF THESE DELAYS BUT I DON'T DISAGREE WHEN I TALK TO DAVE SWANGER AT THE TECH CENTER AND MIKE TAYLOR WE UNDERSTAND THOSE

065AFTERNOON STUDENTS GOING TO MISS THOSE DAYS AND I WAS COMFORTED BY HIM SAYING WILL BE OK BUT DAVID'S ALSO VERY MUCH A TEAM AND DO WHATEVER SO I UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM THERE I HOPE IT REINFORCES FOR YOU THE NEED THAT WE SEE IN SOME DEGREE BECAUSE I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THE NEED FOR SEVEN FULL DAYS TO THANK YOU. YES. THANK YOU YES AS A PARENT A HALF DAYS WEREN'T MY WEREN'T MY FAVORITE BECAUSE I TOO SAW WHAT IT DID OR DID NOT PROVIDE FOR MY CHILDREN AS A TEACHER HAVE DAYS ARE NOT MY FAVORITE BECAUSE I SEE WHAT IS NOT ABLE TO BE DONE AND HALF OF THE DAY DID WE DO WE HAVE ANY DATA OR AND I KNOW YOU GOT A LOT OF INPUT FROM TEACHERS. HOW ABOUT PARENTS DO WE

066HAVE OR CAN YOU REFRESH AND PASS SURVEYS THE COMMUNITY'S FEELINGS ABOUT HALF DAYS BECAUSE AS A WORKING PARENT THAT'S TWO DAYS I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE OFF WORK AND IF I HAVE A JOB THAT I HAVE SIX DAYS IN A YEAR OR EIGHT DAYS IN A YEAR THAT'S THAT'S TWO DAYS I'M GOING TO TO TAKE OFF PLUS THE FACT THAT IF I DON'T HAVE MY CHILD REGULAR DAYCARE IT'S I MEAN THAT'S WHAT WOULD HAVE TO HAVE TO TAKE OFF BECAUSE YOU CAN'T JUST ALL OF A SUDDEN FOR FOUR DAYS OF THE YEAR ON YOUR CHILD UP FOR SOME RANDOM DAYCARE WHAT'S THE DATA ON THE COMMUNITY THE COMMUNITY AND WORKING PARENTS? AND I'D HAVE TO LOOK BACK A COUPLE OF YEARS WHEN WE'VE ASKED THAT QUESTION BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT THE CALENDAR WE

067DEVELOPED LAST YEAR DID NOT HAVE ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS AND THAT WE WERE VERY INTENTIONAL ON VERY INTENTIONAL ON THAT. WE WERE VERY INTENTIONAL IN THIS CALENDAR. TWENTY FOUR TWENTY NOT TO HAVE ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS FOR JUST THE SAME REASONS WE'VE OUTLINED RIGHT WE FELT LIKE WITH LIKE WITH THE DAYS WE HAVE BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE HAD AT THE TIME THAT WE COULD GET ALL THE TRAININGS ON THAT WERE NEEDED IN THAT CALENDAR WITH THE IDEA THAT AND MAYBE MISS CLERGY CAN PROVIDE SOME CLARIFICATION ON SOME CHANGES IN VIRGINIA LITERACY THAT WE FELT THOSE DATES ARE GOING TO BE AVAILABLE IN JUNE AND THAT WE WERE GOING TO HAVE A LESS HEAVIER LIFT WITH VLA BECAUSE OUR TEACHERS HAVE ALREADY DONE SOME THINGS PRIOR TO SO IF YOU DON'T MIND IF I JUST LET HER

068PROVIDE SOME CONTEXT ON THAT. YES, THAT WOULD AND I'VE GOT ONE MORE QUESTION CAME OUT OF THAT SO WHEN I FIRST CAME TO YOU AND PRESENTED THE DIVISION LITERACY PLAN, IF YOU RECALL I SAID THAT OUR TEACHERS THAT HAD FINISHED LETTERS WHICH AN EXTENSIVE EVIDENCE BASED LITERACY TRAINING LOOKING AT THE NUMBERS SLIGHTLY ABOVE 50 PERCENT OF OUR ELEMENTARY TEACHERS HAD COMPLETED LETTERS VOLUME ON WHICH IS AMAZING WE WERE AT THAT TIME WE HAD BEEN COMMUNICATED BY VIDEO THAT THOSE TEACHERS WOULD HAVE TO COMPLETE ONE MODULE THEN IT WAS ONE COURSE THAT CONTAINED THREE MODULES. THEN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CAME IN ILLITERACY UPDATE ON JUNE 20TH THAT STATED LETTERS VOLUME ONE AND TWO WERE REQUIRED WHICH IS LETTERS VOLUME TWO REQUIRES ANOTHER YEAR OF TRAINING SO AT THAT POINT WE WERE VERY CONCERNED BECAUSE WE HAVE COMMUNICATED

069WE HAD PLANNED WE HAD RECEIVED YOUR SUPPORT FOR A GREAT CALENDAR AND SINCE THEN THE VIDEO WE PUT OUT ANOTHER MEMO FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT THAT CLARIFIED IT WOULD NOT BE THEY WOULD ALLOW SOME TRAINING IN LIEU OF VOLUME TWO AND SO AT THAT TIME IT LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE ADDING WHAT HAD REFERRED TO AT THIS TIME AS A YUVA MODULE PLUS THE CAPSTONE COURSE THAT HAS THREE MODULES IN IT SO THE LAST COMMUNICATION WE RECEIVE WE WERE ESTIMATING THAT WOULD BE ABOUT FOUR MODULES. HOWEVER DURING AN OFFICE HOURS RECENTLY IT WAS MENTIONED THAT IT MIGHT BE SEVEN MODULES. WE DON'T KNOW HOW LONG THEY ARE THOUGH AND SO AS SOON AS WE GET THAT INFORMATION WILL CLEARLY COMMUNICATE BUT WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE IS THAT IT IS MUCH MORE THAN ONE TO THREE MODULES

070AT THIS POINT NOW THOSE MODULES COULD BE SHORT AND HAS BEEN A GREAT PARTNER AND SO HAS THE VIRGINIA LITERACY PARTNERSHIP GROUP SO WE'RE AWAITING A JULY LITERACY UPDATE FOR THAT CLARITY BUT WE KNOW IT IS MUCH MORE RIGHT NOW THAN WHAT WE INTENDED WHEN WE BEGAN STRATEGICALLY PLANNING TO SUPPORT OUR TEACHERS AND THEY ARE GOING TO NEED TIME. I'LL I'LL HAVE SOME QUESTIONS TO CALL YOU ABOUT FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS THAT MAYBE WE COULD EVEN LOOK INTO SOMETHING COMPROMISE INSTEAD OF FOR MAYBE TWO I MEAN FOR FOUR MISCONSTRUCTION OF MISCONSTRUCTION, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE KIDS THAT HAVE CERTAIN IN THE AFTERNOON I MEAN THAT IS ASSUMED THAT I IS JUST HUGE. BUT I WILL WAIT FOR THE DATA FOR THEM TO SEE WHAT THE LAST SURVEY SAID ABOUT PARENTS AND HOW THEY DEAL WITH

071THE TOUGH DAYS. ALSO NOW I KNOW THE TRAINING WHAT YOU WERE TALKING IS NOT HERE YET BUT AS FAR AS THE YEARLY MODULES LIKE FOR SAFETY THE CHOKING INHALERS I MEAN THAT'S WHAT I MEAN LIKE I DID ONE TODAY SO THEY CAN ARE THOSE AVAILABLE ARE THOSE STILL BE AVAILABLE THURSDAY NIGHT? I JUST WANT TO PRINT ADDITIONAL CONTEXT HERE. I THINK WE HAVE FOR OUR RETURNING TEACHERS WHEN I SPOKE TO STEVE THE PARK TODAY THEY TO DO FIFTEEN MODULES AS RETURNING TEACHERS YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TEST OUT OF SEVEN OF THOSE IF THEY IF THEY ARE SMART ENOUGH AT THE BEGINNING GET IT RIGHT THEY CAN PASS THROUGH IT HIS ESTIMATION OF TIME FOR THAT IS THREE HOURS FOR EACH ONE THE ENTIRE NOW THIS IS THE PART WHERE I THINK IS GOING TO

072CATCH A LITTLE BIT OUR NEW TEACHERS HAVE TWENTY SEVEN MODULES TO TAKE THEY CANNOT TEST OUT SO THAT COMES OUT TO AROUND 11 HOURS AND WHEN DID THEY HAVE TO HAVE THAT COMPLETED WE PUSHED IT BACK TO JANUARY THIRTY ONE LAST WE MOVED WE HAD IT IN EARLY NOVEMBER BY NOVEMBER BY THAT STAFF DAY IN NOVEMBER TO GET THAT COMPLETED WE FELT LIKE THERE IT IS NOT GOING BE REASONABLE TO HAVE THAT TIME AGAIN BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE CULTURAL COMPETENCY TRAINING THAT HAS TO BE DONE THAT'S A MINIMUM OF AN HOUR. THE CESAR TRAINING IS AN HOUR AND A HALF AS WELL SO THEY CAN GET STARTED BUT WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT A TEACHER MAYBE NOT GETTING HIRED UNTIL THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS THEY'RE GOING TO COME IN GOING TO VIRGINIA LITERACY TRAINING I

073HAVE ELEVEN HOURS OF MODULES TO COMPLETE. IT'S IT'S YOU AND NOW I WILL SAY THIS ALL STAFF HAS TO DO PORTIONS OF THAT TYPICALLY I'M AROUND 12 OR THIRTEEN MODULES MYSELF SO IT IS A TIMELY TASK AND I DO WANT TO CLARIFY WHEN I WAS SPEAKING TO THE TIME LIMIT OF THE ADDITIONAL MODULES THAT TEACHERS THAT ARE TRAINED AND LETTERS ONE WILL HAVE TO TAKE THE MODELS THAT OTHER TEACHERS FOR SURE THAT WE KNOW THAT THEY HAVE RELEASED ITS TWO TO THREE HOURS AND MODULE SO AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT NINE MODULES AND SO AND ITSELF CASE SO IT COULD TAKE LONGER SO THE SAFETY ONES THOUGH YOU'RE YOU'RE EXTENDING THOSE FOR IN ORDER TO JUST THE D.A. COMMITTEE WHICH TO JANUARY 30 FIRST SOME OF THAT MAKES THAT MAKES ME A LITTLE IT MAKES THAT

074WERE WE DO PUSH OUR PRINCIPLES TO HAVE A FEW OF THEM DONE EARLIER WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT FIRST AID TRAINING CLASSROOM SAFETY YEAH NEED TO BE DONE WE LOOK DONE. WE LOOK TO GET THOSE DONE EARLIER THEY ALSO HAVE OTHER CENTRAL SESSIONS AROUND BEHAVIOR. I WILL TELL YOU HISTORICALLY WE'VE BEEN AROUND JANUARY LAST YEAR WAS THE FIRST WE MOVED IT UP TO NOVEMBER BECAUSE OF THE TIME TAKES TO COMPLETE THOSE MODULES AND I THINK WE'VE HAD PRETTY GOOD SUCCESS I KNOW LAST YEAR AND COMPLETING THOSE AND I THINK I JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT THAT YOU HEARD MODULES AND VIDEOIQ AND THERE'S A LOT OF LINGOA THERE I THINK THE KEY MESSAGING POINT THAT WE WANT TO SHARE WE HAD OVER 50 PERCENT OF OUR TEACHERS THAT WE WERE THOUGHT WE'RE GOING

075TO HAVE VERY MINIMAL VLA TRAINING AND SOME SCHOOLS IT WAS EIGHTY FIVE PERCENT OF THEIR TEACHERS WERE VERY CLOSE BEING FINALIZED SO WE FELT WE'RE GOING TO GOING TO BE PRETTY GOOD AND SOME SCHOOLS AND THEN AS THINGS CHANGE WE RECOGNIZED THE PLANS WERE PUT FORTH ARE NOT WHAT WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO EXECUTE AND THAT'S AS I SAID YOU'VE HEARD ME TIME AND AGAIN ON THE CALENDAR SAY FULL DAYS OF THE BEST DAYS. BUT I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND IN THIS WHERE IT'S GOING TO BE A HEAVY LIFT FOR OUR TEACHERS BECAUSE OF THE UNKNOWN. OK, WELL THANK FOR THAT INFORMATION I'LL LOOK FORWARD TO THAT OTHERS IT'S A LOT TO THINK ABOUT THINK ABOUT. YOU MIND IF I ASK YOU A QUESTION REGARDING YOUR QUESTION ON THE SURVEY FOR PARENTS BECAUSE I'M NOT CERTAIN

076WHAT INFORMATION YOU'RE LOOKING FOR AND JUST PARENTS AND I'M NOT SURE WE HAVE AROUND ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS. YEAH, I MEAN AND I DON'T KNOW I'D HAVE TO GO BACK BUT I'M JUST THINKING THAT AT SOME POINT WE PROBABLY ASK THAT ON SOME SURVEY BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I HEAR AT THE BUS STOP IN THE GROCERY STORE WHAT WHY YOU ALL HAVE HALF DAYS I WHAT I WOULD DO WITH MY KIDS ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE IF YOU'RE SINGLE PARENT WHO WORKS AND YOU HAVE A LIMITED TIME OFF AND SO THAT'S A BIG YOU KNOW, NOT NOT ONLY LOSS OF INSTRUCTION BUT LOSS OF THE GUILTY FOR SOMEONE TO WORK AND WHILE SOME DAY CARE THOSE DAYS. SO I WAS JUST THINKING IF WE HAD THAT IN THE PAST SOMETHING ABOUT TAKING INTO TO DON'T CARE ABOUT HALF DAYS

077OR HALF DAYS ARE DEFINITELY VERY HARD FOR ME . YEAH I THINK WE KNOW FOR MANY IT IS IT IS A CHALLENGE FOR SURE. I THINK MR. COLPEPER THE CALENDAR OBVIOUSLY WAS A LONG BATTLE AND I DO REMEMBER YOU SAYING MANY TIMES WHAT WE'RE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION THAT DISCUSSION THAT YOU PREFER FULL DAYS I KNOW YOU'RE BEING STRAIGHT AND I THINK AT LEAST MOSTLY UNDERSTAND THE MAGNITUDE OF ADDITIONAL OF THE ADDITIONAL BURDEN YOU'RE LOOKING HERE BUT MY QUESTION IS IF THE IF THE BOARD DOESN'T GIVE YOU THESE FOR EXTRA HAVE TO ASIA TWO EXTRA HAVE TO AGREE UPON WHAT WHAT WOULD YOU DO WE HAVE SOME THINGS IN PLACE CURRENTLY THAT WE'VE LOOKED SO OUR SCHOOLS HAVE WHAT WE CALL COLLABORATION DAYS. THEY GET ALLOTTED A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF DAYS WE TYPICALLY USE THOSE FOR

078TEACHERS GROUND TEAMS PLAN OR DEAL WITH OTHER TYPES OF ISSUES THROUGH THEIR POLICY THAT THEY WANT RESOLVE IT CAN BE VERY PRODUCTIVE IT REQUIRES . IT REQUIRES A PERMANENT SUB AND OTHER SUBSTITUTES COME IN AND PROVIDE SOME SUPPORT SO DEPARTMENT OF SCHOOL LEADERSHIP ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL DANCE AND PARTICULARLY BEEN WORKING WITH PRINCIPALS SAY THERE'S DATES ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE REALLY STRATEGIC ON HOW YOU UTILIZE YOUR PERMANENT SUBSTITUTES WHEN WE SEND TEACHERS OUT FOR COLLABORATION DAYS NOT TO TAKE IT TOO FAR IN THE WEEDS BUT ESSENTIALLY I COULD SAY AS A PRINCIPAL I'M GOING TO SEND MY FOURTH GRADE TEAM OUT THIS MORNING SO THEY CAN WORK ON MODULES I'M GOING TO HAVE SUBSTITUTES IN THERE AND I'M GOING TO ROTATE THAT GROUP IN THE AFTERNOON. SO IN SAYING ALL OF THAT THAT

079DOESN'T LEAVE SOME OF THE CONCERNS AROUND INSTRUCTIONAL AND WHO THE TEACHERS IN FRONT OF THEM. THEM. THERE'S A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS ARE HAVING ABOUT WHAT DO WE NEED TO PUT IN PLACE TO PROVIDE TIME WHILE CONTRACT FOR TEACHERS TO COMPLETE THE TRAINING. SO IN SHORT USE SUBSTITUTES TO GIVE THEM MORE TIME THAT'S ONE AREA WE WOULD USE CORRECT AND ALSO WORK WITH OUR PRINCIPLES ON HOW THEY'RE UTILIZING IN-SERVICE WEEK AND UTILIZING THE STAFF DAYS THERE IN FRONT OF THEM RIGHT NOW THEM RIGHT NOW. SO IF YOU LOOK THAT OCTOBER SEVEN FOR EXAMPLE, WE WILL SAY TO PRINCIPALS YOU HAVE TO GIVE A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF THIS TIME FOR THEM TO COMPLETE MODULES MOST OF THEM HAVE ALREADY DONE THAT THEY'RE THAT. THEY'RE USING SOME OF THEIR IN-SERVICE TO SAY THAT'S A DAY THAT I WANT

080YOU WORKING ON MODULES WHEN YOU TAKE WHEN YOU SAY EACH MODULE COULD BE THREE HOURS AND IF YOU MODULES THE MATH IS TWENTY SEVEN HOURS OTHER THINGS THEY WANT TO DO PLAN FOR THE NEXT LESSONS, REVIEW ASSESSMENT DATA, GET ENGAGED THERE MATH CURRICULUM, YOU KNOW, REVISE IEP SO THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT ALSO THEY'RE TASKED WITH DOING THAT CREATES THE ADDITIONAL STRESS OF HOW DO THEY BALANCE THAT TIME HOPE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION I TRY TO TRIED TO GIVE YOU AS MUCH CONTEXT. YEAH, MISS OWNS I MEAN MISS RIGGS AND THEN MISS ANDERSON MY QUESTION IS WHEN YOU DO THE COLLABORATION AT THE PRINCIPALS DO COLLABORATION TIME UM WHAT DO THE TEACHERS HAVE TO DO TO PREPARE SUBSTITUTES TO TAKE OVER TO DO THAT COLLABORATION AS THEY PREPARE THE SAME AS THEY DO IN

081ANY DAY THAT WOULD SUBSTITUTE THEY HAVE TO PLAN LESSON PLANS. SO THAT'S ADDITIONAL IT'S ADDITIONAL SO MY THOUGHTS AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT SO I WAS PUTTING IT OUT THERE BUT I KNOW FROM DOING COLLABORATION MYSELF THAT AND I FOR TEACHERS SAYING OVER AND OVER AGAIN THAT IT HELP ME BECAUSE I HAD TO DO SO MUCH MORE WORK BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE A SUBSTITUTE IT'S A LOT HARDER THAN WHEN YOU'RE THERE COLLABORATION IS NICE AND IT HELPS BUT IT'S NOT HELPING THIS SITUATION OF PUTTING ALL THE EXTRA STRESS IN THE EXTRA TIME IN PREPARATION. SO THAT'S A LOT AS WELL AND I WOULD THINK I WOULD HOPE THAT PARENTS WANT OUR TEACHERS TO BE PREPARED AND TO BE TO HAVE WHAT THEY NEED TO HAVE TO TEACH THIS LITERACY AND TO TEACH AT

082THE BEST THAT THEY CAN SO I KNOW HOW DOGMATIC YOU GUYS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CALENDAR AND KEEP IN OUR KIDS AND I KNOW AND I KNOW WHAT YOUR PHILOSOPHY SCHOOLS ARE MET FOR KIDS TO VIENNA TO BE IN AT ALL TIMES SO THIS IS LIKE YOU SAID GIVING YOU SOME HEARTBURN TO HAVE TO DO THIS. BUT THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE WE CHOSE TO DO THIS IS SOMETHING THAT OUR STATE'S PUTTING US TO DO SO I THINK THAT WE THAT WE NEED TO HELP OUR ESPECIALLY OUR NEW OUR NEW ONES. I JUST IT'S HARD ENOUGH BEING A TEACHER COMING BACK YEAR AFTER YEAR EVEN WITH THIRTY SEVEN YEARS I MEAN EVERY YEAR WE'RE EVERY YEAR WE'RE STILL MORE MORE BUT OUR NEW TEACHERS AND ALL THAT THEY HAVE TO DO THOSE FOUR 1/2 DAYS

083TO ME ARE GOING TO BE GOLD TO THEM. THEY'RE GOING TO NEED AND YOU GUYS WILL NOT BE ASKING FOR THIS IF YOU DIDN'T THINK SO I APPRECIATE THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT LOOKING AT IT STRATEGICALLY I THINK I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE THINK ABOUT THE WHOLE YOU KNOW, NOT ONLY OUR PARENTS AND OUR IN OUR KIDS BUT TEACHERS AND OUR KIDS WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS BECAUSE OUR TEACHERS NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR THIS THEY'RE GOING TO NEED THIS TIME AND I'M SPEAKING FROM THE EXPERIENCE FOR TEACHER. I HAD THE COLLABORATION I HAVE NOT HALF AS NOT HALF AS MUCH AS THEY'RE GETTING BECAUSE I WAS 12 YEARS AGO SO THERE'S BEEN SO MUCH MORE POURED ON TO THEM. SO YOU SEE THANK YOU. THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS REVISED CALENDAR WITH

084FOUR 1/2 DAYS BUILT IN IT AND I TO UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE COMING FROM AND HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THE HALF DAYS AND I I UNDERSTAND HOW PARENTS FEEL ABOUT HOW WAS THE PARENT I I DIDN'T ENJOY WHAT TO DO WHAT WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO WITH MY CHILDREN FOR THOSE HALF DAYS BUT AT THE SAME TIME WHEN WE GIVE THEM ENOUGH TIME THAT CAN PREPARED FOR THIS WE AS A SCHOOL SYSTEM ARE IN THE BUSINESS OF PROVIDING FIRST RATE QUALITY INSTRUCTION AND HOW DO WE GET THERE WE GET THERE BY HAVING TEACHERS WHO ARE TRAINED AND THIS IS WHAT YOU ALL HAVE RECOGNIZED. THE KEY LANGUAGE HERE IS CALLED LACK OF TIME FOR OUR TEACHERS TO GET THIS TRAINING AND IF WE DON'T GIVE THEM THE TIME THEN IT'S IT'S NOT FAIR TO THEM

085EITHER. YES WE HAVE TO THINK OF THE PARENTS WE ALSO HAVE TO THINK OF WHAT WE'RE REQUIRING OUR TEACHERS TO DO, NOT WHAT WE'RE WHAT THE STATE HAS PUT ON FOR OUR TEACHERS TO DO IF WE SEND TEACHERS OUT FOR COLLABORATION DAYS IT'S STILL AFFECTS THE QUALITY OF INSTRUCTION AND AS FAR AS MY COLLEAGUE JUST POINTED OUT ABSOLUTELY IT ABSOLUTELY IS A LOT MORE TIME CONSUMING FOR TEACHERS TO COME UP WITH THE LESSON PLANS THEY NEED TO BEHIND AND HIS CHILDREN ARE STILL NOT GOING TO GET THE QUALITY INSTRUCTION THEY NEED SO I'M NOT IN FAVOR OF OF DOING THE COLLABORATION TIME THINK THAT'S THAT JUST WASTES A FEW DAYS OF INSTRUCTION THAT WE DON'T WE CAN'T AFFORD TO DO. BUT REALLY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR REALIZING THAT OUR TEACHERS NEED THIS TIME WITH

086THESE BUILT IN HALF DAYS AND WE JUST START LETTING PARENTS KNOW AHEAD OF TIME. YES, THERE ARE FOUR THROUGHOUT THE YEAR THAT WE'RE GOING TO ASK YOU TO COME UP WITH YOU KNOW BABYSITTING I MEAN. I MEAN I DON'T I DON'T WANT TO I DON'T WANT TO DO COLLABORATION BECAUSE BASICALLY COLLABORATION IS BASICALLY US PROVIDING BABYSITTING FOR THE STUDENTS SO THAT THE PARENTS WON'T HAVE AND PROVIDED AND I GET THAT GET THAT I UNDERSTAND THAT I I THINK I'M GOING TO HAVE TO CLARIFY A LITTLE BIT OF COLLABORATION DAYS BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE NOBODY ELSE IN THE BOARD THINKS WE'RE WASTING TIME WITH THESE DAYS SO I WILL SHARE SHOW IT TO YOU AS PRINCIPAL THESE DAYS TYPICALLY WHEN TYPICALLY WHEN MY TEACHERS CAME BACK SO THAT TIME WAS INVALUABLE FOR ME TO

087PLAN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS OF INSTRUCTION WITH MY TEAM SO I DON'T WANT ANY MORE COLLABORATION DAYS WHY ARE WE HAVING THEM WE GET GREAT GET GREAT VALUE OUT OF THOSE AS I UNDERSTAND IT IS A IS AN AREA WHERE THEY HAVE TO PLAN AND DO THINGS DOES CREATE A LITTLE BIT BUT I BUT I I NEVER SENT A TEAM OUT COLLABORATION DAYS WHERE THEY DIDN'T COME BACK AND THANKED ME FOR THAT TIME WORKING WITH OR COLLEAGUES AND THEY SAID I FEEL LIKE I HAVE THE NEXT NINE WEEKS READY TO GO SO IF IF YOU EVER HAVE A TEACHER STANDARDS WASTE TIME WE A WASTE TIME WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT SO WE CAN COACH OUR PRINCIPAL ON HOW TO HANDLE PLEASE DON'T MISUNDERSTAND ME I'M NOT SAYING THAT COLLABORATION IS WASTE OF TIME

088WHAT. WHAT I'M SAYING IS IN WHEN YOU COMPARE IT TO THE TEACHERS NOT HAVING TO MAKE THOSE PLANS FOR SUBSTITUTES TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR STUDENTS WHILE THEY'RE OUT COLLABORATING WITH THE OTHER TEACHERS WHEN YOU COMPARE THE TWO THE TEACHERS WHO WHO WOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THAT IN LIEU HAVING A HALF DAY OF STUDENTS AT HOME AND NOT HAVING COME UP WITH THOSE ADDITIONAL PLANS, THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE. I APPRECIATE CLARIFICATION. SO IF IT'S JUST TO THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT I WOULDN'T VOTE IN FAVOR OF HAVING THE HALF DAYS YOU KNOW AND, AND LIKE I SAID, LET'S AT THE PARENTS KNOW AHEAD OF TIME. YOU HAVE FOUR DAYS THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR THAT WE MIGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL BABYSITTING FOR YOUR CHILDREN. MR. COHEN BASED ON THE CROSSROADS THAT YOU'RE DESCRIBING THAT

089THIS IS PRESENTED US WITH ONE OF THE VARIABLES IT SEEMS THAT SURROUNDS THIS IS THE FACT THAT WE DON'T KNOW JUST HOW DEMANDING THIS WILL BE ONCE WE FINALLY RECEIVED THE INSIGHTS THAT WE ARE AWAITING FROM THE STATE OF VIRGINIA IF THAT'S A CORRECT UNDERSTANDING, IF IT TURNS OUT TO BE LESS DEMANDING THAN WE'RE ENVISIONING AND WE'VE TALKED ABOUT FOUR 1/2 DAYS THAT WE'VE PREPARED FOR AND WE REALIZE IT'S NOT NECESSARY THAT WE USE ALL FOUR OF THOSE I'M ASSUMING WE CAN TAKE THAT SHIPPED BACK OFF THE TABLE BUT IS THAT A CORRECT ASSUMPTION ONCE YOU'VE OPEN THAT DOOR I DON'T SEE ME STANDING AT THIS PODIUM ASKING EARNED TWO DAYS OR FOUR DAYS BUT THAT AGAIN THAT'S NOT I'M JUST GIVING YOU I'D BE SURPRISED IF I GET BUT YOU DID YOU DID PACKAGE

090THIS PRESENTATION SURROUNDING THE ASPECT THAT THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF UNCERTAINTY THAT SURROUNDS THIS AND SINCE WE REGARD AS PRECIOUS CORRECT SCHOOL DAYS AND HOURS IN SCHOOL THEN IT WOULD SEEM AS THOUGH THE DEMANDS ARE NOT AS GREAT THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO PLAY THAT CARD BUT AGAIN, I'M I'M USING A HYPOTHETICAL I THINK HE ASKED THE QUESTION I THINK THAT THINK THAT THE ANSWER COMES A LITTLE IT IN THE CALENDAR WE DID DEVELOPED THIS YEAR COMPARED TO OTHER SCHOOL DIVISIONS MANY OTHER SCHOOL DIVISIONS IF YOU LOOK ADDED AT IT, MANY ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS AROUND TRAINING WE DID NOT BECAUSE AGAIN WE FELT BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE WERE GETTING THAT WE WOULD BE POISED A PRETTY GOOD PLACE THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THE AMOUNT OF TRAINING THAT NOW CAME

091THROUGH AFTER SCHOOL IT OUT IN TERMS OF SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO THAT I'M NOT ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION BUT WHAT I'M TELLING YOU IS WHERE WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO BE IN THE LEFT IS WHERE YOU GOT THE CALENDAR YOU GOT IN TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE I THINK WE'RE PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT IT IS NOT GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT WE'RE GOING TO GO THEY THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING LEFT TO DO AND WE CAN ADD THOSE DAYS BACK I JUST DON'T SEE THAT HAPPENING BECAUSE ONCE THEY KNOW IT'S THERE THEY KNOW THEY CAN PLAN AROUND OTHER TRAINING NEEDS THAT EXIST WITHIN THE SCHOOL BUILDING SUCH IS UNDERSTANDING HOW TO TEACH THE NEW MATH STANDARDS FOR THE NEW SOCIAL STUDIES STANDARDS UTILIZE THAT TIME IN OTHER IN OTHER AVENUES WHICH IS ALSO MUCH FROM A PLANNING STANDPOINT. BROWN

092I THINK I THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT INFORMATION AND THE CLARIFICATION AND I DEFINITELY I UNDERSTAND THE CHALLENGES. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THE CHALLENGES OF THE HALF DAYS AND MY MAIN CONCERN AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S REALLY A QUESTION REASSURANCE BUT MY MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SITTING IN AN AUGUST MEETING NEXT HERE WITH OH YOU KNOW I KNOW WE HAD 180 DAYS CALENDAR WE ARE YOU ALREADY SCALED BACK A DAY WAS TO YEAH. SKILBECK TWO DAYS ONE OR TWO DAYS YOU KNOW AND WE NEED TO ADD FOUR FIVE SIX 1/2 DAYS 1/2 DAYS TO THE SCHOOL YEAR SO I GUESS WHAT TYPE OF REASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN TO THE COMMUNITY THAT WHEN WE SET WHEN WE SET OUR CALENDAR THAT WE AREN'T GOING TO INTEND TO SPRINKLE AN EXTRA

093HALF DAYS THAT MAY PRESENT CHALLENGES FOR FOR FAMILIES NOT THAT WE'RE USING SCHOOL AS DAY CARE HERE BUT FAMILIES DO HAVE FAMILIES DO HAVE A REASONABLE NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO BE GOING ON WITH THEIR CHILDREN AND MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THEIR CHILDREN . I MAY THE LEGISLATION SPECIFIES THAT ALL TEACHERS 3RD 8:00 HAVE TO HAVE THIS TRAINING AND THE VIDEO HAS STATED IN THE LAST UPDATE THAT WE RECEIVED WHICH EXPRESSED THAT THERE WOULD BE ADDITIONAL MODULES EVEN IF YOU HAD TAKEN LETTERS VOLUME ONE THAT THIS HAS TO BE DONE BY THE CONCLUSION OF THE SUMMER NEXT SCHOOL YEAR AT FIRST IT HAD TO BE COMPLETED THIS SCHOOL YEAR BUT THEY HAVE NOT RELEASED THE MODULES YET SO THEY EXTENDED THAT THROUGH THE NEXT SUMMER BUT THEY THIS IS AN UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCE IN WHICH WE

094NEED TO COMPLY WITH THE LEGISLATION. SO I JUST FOCUS ON THAT PIECE RIGHT THERE. THIS IS ON OH I'M SORRY. YEAH, I JUST BUT SO FOR NEXT YOU DON'T FORESEE THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE THE SAME TYPE OF DEMAND. YOU KNOW IN THE QUESTION IS AT WHAT POINT IS A DO WE SAY YOU KNOW I KNOW THIS HAS COME UP COME UP AND IT CAME UP AGAIN SOMETHING DIFFERENT MAYBE NOT THE SAME TRAINING MODULE BUT AT WHAT POINT DO WE SAY OK WE WE CAN'T MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS. I CAN'T PREDICT WHAT FUTURE LEGISLATION WILL COME OUR WAY AT ANY POINT BUT GIVEN THE INFORMATION WE HAD WE DID A REALLY GREAT JOB TEACHERS AND PRINCIPALS COLLECTED SO COLLECTED SO MUCH INFORMATION AND WE STRATEGIC PLANNED AND BROUGHT FORTH THAT INFORMATION AND SINCE THEN UNFORTUNATELY MORE

095INFORMATION HAS REVISED SOME OF THAT GUIDANCE AND WE ARE REALLY CONCERNED THAT OUR TEACHERS ARE GOING TO NEED OUR SUPPORT TO COMPLETE THIS AND AS YOU KNOW, THIS DIVISION HAS REALLY INVESTED IN EVIDENCE BASED LITERACY INSTRUCTION SO THE INTENT OF THE LEGISLATION IS SO GOOD AND WELL INTENDED AND WE BELIEVE IN IT AND THAT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE THAT WE ALSO AFTER STRATEGICALLY SUPPORT OUR STAFF AND EQUIP THEM YOU KNOW TO, TO BE ABLE TO ENGAGE. THANK YOU SO I THINK WE PARENTS REALLY NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS THESE AREN'T ARBITRARY HALF TEAMS THAT THIS THIS IS THIS IS REAL THE TEACHER THE TEACHERS REALLY THEY THEY KNOW WHAT'S ON THEIR PLATE RIGHT NOW I JUST RAN INTO A COUPLE OF THE OTHER DAY THERE SHAKING THEIR HEADS IN THE THE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO

096KNOW THAT THIS IS THAT THIS IS VIDEO WE MANDATED TRAINING THIS IS NOT JUST ARBITRARY ASSIGNMENT OF FOUR CAFES AND ONE OF MY ONE OF MY FRIENDS WHO IS DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO RETIRE JUST SAID I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH MORE I CAN DO AND IT'S MY I CAN'T DO EVERYTHING AND SHE'S A READING SPECIALIST BECAUSE I CAN'T I CAN'T GET IT ALL DONE AND I'M JUST YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT SAY I'M DISAPPOINTED IN THE VALLEY BUT I AM BECAUSE THERE ARE PROGRAMS THAT ARE BEING ROLLED OUT THAT AREN'T FINISHED AND YOU CAN'T YOU CAN'T BUILD YOU CAN'T BUILD THE PLANE. WHERE YOU FLYING AND THAT'S KIND OF WHERE WE'RE LEAVING OUR TEACHERS AND I DON'T LIKE HALF DAYS BUT IN THIS THESE ARE UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES AND WE NEED TO BE ABLE

097TO PIVOT AND HELP OUR TEACHERS TO HAVE THE TIME THAT THEY NEED TO DO THIS THANK MISS CAMPBELL, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH MR. DEALING DELANEY, WITH YOUR WORK ON ALL OF YOUR WORK WITH TRYING TO HELP US TO COMPLY WITH THE VIDEO I'M JUST CURIOUS AND YOU HAD MENTIONED OR ALLUDED TO IT EARLIER ABOUT THE OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS. CAN YOU SHARE A A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MAYBE CHESAPEAKE OR NORFOLK IS DOING THERE COMPLIANCE TO ENSURE THAT I'LL HAVE TO LOOK IT UP COMPLETELY BUT WHEN I LOOK THE FAIRFAX COUNTY HAS SEVERAL ADJUSTED DISMISSAL DAYS I HAVE NOT MEMORIZED WHERE IT LOOKS WHAT I SEE MORE OF THEM HAVING ADJUSTED DISMISSAL I LOOK AT NEIGHBORING SCHOOL DIVISIONS THAT HAVE ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FOUR INSTRUCTIONAL DAYS AND OUT OF THAT THEY HAVE SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF

098STAFF DAYS SIX OF THOSE MIGHT BE ADJUSTED IN SOME CASES SO THERE'S OTHERS THAT LOOKED HADN'T SAID FROM THE STANDPOINT OF TRAINING WE WANT TO PROVIDE THAT TIME. I CAN GET YOU MORE DETAILS JUST BY WHEN I CAN PULL UP THOSE CALENDARS YEAH I'M JUST CURIOUS TO SEE HOW OUR FOUR OUR FOUR 1/2 DAYS MIGHT COMPARE TO THE LOCAL SCHOOLS FOR ME IN THIS REGARD. HAMPTON THIS IS KIND OF YOU KNOW ALL, ALL THE PARENTS ARE ALL IN THE STUDENTS ARE KIND OF ALL LOOKING HOW EACH OTHER DOES THINGS AND I THINK FOR US TO BE GOOD TO KNOW BUT THANKS AGAIN FOR THE WORK HARD WORK THAT WORK THAT YOU ALL DID FOR THIS I KNOW IT'S NOT EASY. I'LL GET THAT INFORMATION TO YOU ALL. THANK THANK YOU SO I'LL REMIND MY COLLEAGUES

099AT THIS IS A THIS IS A BOARD THAT DID NOT WANT TO INVESTIGATE OPERATING ON A AND AN BASED CALENDAR. THIS WAS BOARD WHO WANTED ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY DAYS AND WHEN WE'RE COMPARING OURSELVES TO NORFOLK DOES SPEAK OPERATE ON HOURS. NO THEY ARE THEY ARE THE SAME NUMBER OF DAYS AND LABOR DAY STARTS AND NORFOLK IS HOURS. THEY'RE FREE LABOR DAY THEY DO IT BY DAYS NOT OURS BUT THEY COMPLY WITH THE STATE ON NINE NINE MY CONVERSATION WITH NORFOLK, VA. THEY'RE DIRECTOR WAS WE WANT TO LABOR DAY START AND END BEFORE JUNE NOW BASICALLY WAS BASICALLY THE DIRECTIVE SO CANDIDLY WE WOULD WE WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME AS A STAFF SUPPORTING RIGHT OF COURSE BUT YOU KNOW WE ARE WHERE WE ARE AND WE ARE AND WE MAY HAVE TO ADJUST IN ORDER

100TO TO MEET TO MEET THE DEMAND OF OF THESE PROGRAMS. AND IN ADDITION THE NEW ACCREDITATION STANDARDS SO WE HAVE A LOT ON OUR PLATE THIS YEAR SWIMS AND THEN AND THEN DR. ROBERTSON. YES, I HAD ONE QUICK QUESTION. DID Y'ALL I AT ONE POINT I THINK ON THE DRAFT CALENDAR WE HAD MORE UP FRONT TEACHER WORK DAYS AND THEN WE SCALED IT BACK OR IN THE HAS SOMETIMES WE HAD SEVEN OR EIGHT AND NOW HOW MANY DO WE HAVE SIX WITH ONE FLEX WAS OUT WAS OUT IN THE CONVERSATION ANY LIKE TO ACT LIKE TO ADD. NO WE I BRING THAT INTO THE CONVERSATION. IT DIDN'T EVEN CROSS MIND BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN A CHALLENGE I THINK THAT'S TO ASK TEACHERS TO COME BACK EARLIER FOR IS AT THIS JUNCTURE IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE

101ASKING. YEAH YEAH YEAH I THINK THAT MAYBE I'D BE INTERESTED TO HEAR THEIR COMMENTS IF WE COMING BACK. YEAH EXACTLY. OK AND THEN SINCE SINCE SOME THIS TRAINING IS NOW FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND IS WE'VE GOT TILL NEXT AUGUST SO WE'VE GOT THIRTEEN MONTHS FOR THIS TRAINING WAS THERE ANY CONVERSATION ABOUT HAVING SOME OF THESE THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR? WE DO HAVE THAT FLEX THAT MONDAY. I'M GOING MISS THE DAY JUNE 16TH I THINK IS A MONDAY. THAT'S A FLEX DAY THAT WE'RE ALSO UTILIZING WITH THEM TO SAY THIS IS ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY AT THE END OF THE YEAR TO FINALIZE AND USE THAT TIME TOWARDS THAT FLEX DAY AS WELL ALL RIGHT WELL . WELL, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST NOT WHATEVER WE DECIDED WE FEEL LIKE ONE GROUP

102EITHER PARENTS STUDENTS I'M GOING TO I'M GOING TO AIR ON THE I'M ON THE WHAT I THINK IS BEST FOR FURTHER CONSISTENT INSTRUCTION NO TIME FOR OUR STUDENTS I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE I'LL HAVE MORE QUESTIONS FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. THANK YOU DR. ROBERT YEAH SO YEAH. SO I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTARY WE'VE HAD OVER THE LAST 40 MINUTES. I'LL OFFER A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT YOU'VE HEARD JUST TO REITERATE AS AN ADMINISTRATION WE DO NOT SUPPORT LESS THAN 180 DAYS BECAUSE DAYS BECAUSE WE VALUE INSTRUCTIONAL TIME IS AN ADMINISTRATION WE DO NOT SUPPORT EARLY RELEASE DAYS. THAT'S THEY WEREN'T IN THE CALENDAR WITH THE SITUATION THAT WE'RE FACING THIS YEAR IS PUT US BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE AND THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT HAVE BEEN DICTATED BY THE REQUIREMENTS

103OUT OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION LIKE NOTHING I HAD SEEN IN THIRTY SIX YEARS THE NINE MODULES. SO FOR THE FOR THE FIFTEEN HUNDRED ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHERS I HAVEN'T COMPLETED NEAR THE LETTERS TRAINING THE NON MODELS ARE GOING TO TAKE AT LEAST TWENTY SEVEN HOURS AT LEAST FOR THE TEACHERS WENT THROUGH THE LETTERS TRAINING WHICH WAS COMPARABLE TO A MASTER LEVEL COLLEGE COURSE THEY MAY BE ASKED TO TAKE AS MANY AS SEVEN THE EQUIVALENT OF SEVEN MODULES TWENTY ONE HOURS THAT'S IF THEY CAN GET THROUGH THOSE IN THREE HOURS BUT THAT'S JUST THE FIRST PART SO IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE FIRST TIME YOU EVER LEARN TO DO ANYTHING SWING A TENNIS RACKET, HIT A GOLF BALL, HIT A BASEBALL WHEN YOU LEFT YOUR TRAINING YOU FELT OK I THINK

104I CAN DO THIS THAT'S WHEN THE REAL WORK BEGINS IN AND THE REAL WORK BEGINS WITH ALL OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT THE TEACHERS ALREADY HAVE TO DO THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN QUANTITY AND QUALITY AND THE CHALLENGE THAT MR. ELAINE DID NOT SHARE A COLLABORATION DAYS WHICH YOU GUYS KNOW WE DEAL WITH SUBSTITUTE MANY PRINCIPLES MANY PRINCIPALS A PLAN TO HAVE COLAB DAYS FOR STAFF THOSE ARE CANCELED THE DAY OF BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE SUBSTITUTES SO THE CODE COLAB THEY NEVER COME TO FRUITION AND YOU GOT A GROUP OF FRUSTRATED TEACHERS WHO TOOK THE TIME TO CREATE LESSON PLANS WHICH IS IN ADDITION TO THAT DIDN'T GET TO CARRY THAT OUT. SO WE RECOGNIZE IF TWO DAYS OF EARLY RELEASE WERE APPROPRIATE WE WOULD ONLY ASKED FOR TWO WE'VE ASKED FOR FOUR BECAUSE OUR BEST

105JUDGMENT BASED UPON ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE AWARE OF IS THAT WE NEED FOUR DAYS OF EARLY RELEASE. WE THOUGHTFULLY CREATED THOSE DAYS IF THE BOARD APPROVED THIS RECOMMENDATION WE WILL HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNICATION PLAN TO GO OUT TO FAMILIES WITHIN A WEEK OF A DECISION THAT'S MADE TO GO ALONG WITH THE NEW CALENDAR TO EXPLAIN WHY WE'RE HAVING TO TAKE THESE STEPS AND YES, THE STATE DID DECIDE TO EXTEND THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMPLETE THE TRAINING UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF NEXT SCHOOL YEAR BUT I WOULD ASK THE STATE DOES THAT MAKE SENSE TO YOU BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE ASSESSED IN THE SPRING NEXT YEAR ON THE IMPLEMENT OF THE VALET IN THE NEW STANDARDS, WHAT IS THE VALUE THE TRAINING THAT THE TEACHERS TAKE JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST THERE'S NONE BECAUSE WE'VE ALREADY PASSED

106THE TESTING TIME PERIOD. SO PLEASE NO THIS IS A LAST RESORT FOR US. WE WE DO NOT WANT TO BURDEN FAMILIES ABSOLUTELY NOT AND IF WE FELT THERE WAS ANY OTHER FEASIBLE PLAN THAT'S BROUGHT FORWARD SO BROUGHT FORWARD. SO I APPRECIATE YOUR CONSIDERATION WHATEVER THE BORDER SIZE WILL WE'LL MAKE IT WORK. BUT I JUST FELT IT IMPORTANT FOR ME TO SHARE THIS DID NOT COME WITHOUT SOME DEEP DISCUSSION AND THOUGHT THIS MALNIK IF YOU DON'T MIND HOT HOT OFF THE PRESS FOR MISS LIFE IS OVER WITH SOME ANSWERS TO THIS QUESTION PORTSMOUTH HAS FIVE EARLY RELEASE DAYS NORFOLK THREE FLEX DAYS FOR EARLY RELEASE DAYS FOR TEACHER WORKDAYS CHESAPEAKE TEN TEACHER WORK DAYS NOW SOME OF THOSE ARE IN SERVICE OBVIOUSLY TOO EARLY RELEASE AND THEN THEY HAVE THREE ELEMENTARY ONLY WORK DAYS NOW WE

107TYPICALLY DON'T MOVE IN THAT DIRECTION BACK TO THE CHILD CARE COMPONENT THAT IF I HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL AGE CHILD OR MIDDLE SCHOOL AGE CHILD THAT CAN BE THERE TO ASSIST THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENT THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO THEN GO TO WORK OR ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS BUT THERE'S THREE OF THE SURROUNDING DIVISIONS THANK YOU THANK YOU. I AS THANK YOU. YES, I WAS I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO OUR CONVERSATION. I THINK WHAT NORFOLK IS PAYING THEIR TEACHERS IN ADDITIONAL SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY TO COMPLETE THE TRAINING FOR THE TRAINEE WHY OH, WHY DID YOU SAY THAT I'M GOING TO RELINQUISH MY TIME IS WOODHOUSE AT THIS POINT AT THIS POINT IF THERE'S NO OTHER QUESTIONS LIKE THEIR FUNDS RUNNING OUT RUNNING OUT IN SEPTEMBER OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR I

108THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. I LIKE GOOD ARE WE GOOD THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE ANY EXTRA FUNDS. OK OK OK AND SO WITH NO OTHER QUESTIONS WE WILL NOW MOVE ON TO THE CONSENT AGENDA TONIGHT WE ONLY HAVE ONE ITEM AND THAT'S THE CHRISTOPHER FARMS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN BOILER REPLACEMENT. ARE THERE ANY OBJECTIONS REMOVING THIS ITEM FROM THE CONSENT AGENDA? OK, AND ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA AS PRESENTED MOTION MADE BY MISS ANDERSON SECONDED BY MISS FRANKLIN.

ANY DISCUSSION MISS WINGS YES I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MAKE A SUBSTITUTE MOTION. I MOVE THAT WE AMEND THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE AND HAVE IT TO INCLUDE KATHLEEN BROWN, JESSICA ERWIN'S AND VICKI MANNING AND KEEP EVERYTHING ELSE THE SAME. THANK YOU. OK WE HAVE A OK SO WE HAVE A SUBSTITUTE MOTION ON THE FLOOR MOTION BY MISS WEEMS SECONDED BY MR. CALVIN. OK SO AS CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR I WILL JUST SPEAK THAT MOTION THIS. THIS WAS A REALLY DIFFICULT COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENT TO COMPLETE MOSTLY BECAUSE WHAT I JUST STATED A FEW MINUTES AGO THAT THIS IS ONLY THROUGH DECEMBER AND MANY OF I MEAN THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE

112IS GOING HAVE FOUR MAYBE FIVE MORE MEETINGS AND SO WHAT I SO WHAT I DID IS CHAIR TO BE FAIR AS I CALLED EACH MEMBER OF THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE AND I ASKED THEM IF THEY'D BE WILLING TO GIVE UP THEIR SPOT TO ALLOW MRS. MANNING TO SERVE AND EACH ONE INDEPENDENTLY SAID WE WE ARE WORKING ON SOME SOME POLICIES AND WE'D LIKE TO SEE THOSE COME TO FRUITION. WE'RE STEPPING OFF THE BOARD IN DECEMBER AND I'D LIKE TO FINISH OUT MY TIME WITH THESE POLICIES . IN ADDITION, MRS. BROWN GOT ONE ADDITIONAL QUESTION ONLY BECAUSE SHE'S A RETURNING BOARD MEMBER IN JANUARY SO I DID ASK HER IF SHE WOULD BE WILLING TO STEP DOWN AND AND BE REAPPOINTED IN JANUARY TO THE POLICY REVIEW COMMITTEE AND HER ANSWER WAS EXACTLY THE SAME AS

113THE OTHER TWO MEMBERS WHICH WAS I'VE BEEN WORKING POLICIES THAT I'D LIKE TO LIKE TO SEE COME TO FRUITION AND WHEN I WAS GIVEN THAT AND INDEPENDENTLY RECEIVED THE EXACT SAME ANSWER, IT'S WHY I LEFT IT EXACTLY AS IT IS AND SO MRS. MANNING DID STEPPED DOWN FOR MRS. BROWN LAST YEAR AND SO THAT IS WHY I ASKED THE QUESTION OF MRS. BROWN NOT THAT SHE NEEDED TO DO IT. IT'S JUST WHY I FELT LIKE I COULD HAVE ASKED THAT I SHOULD HAVE ASKED THAT QUESTION SO I THOUGHT WE WERE REALLY FAIR IN IN WHAT WE DID AND TRIED TO HONOR EVERYTHING THAT I POSSIBLY COULD. AND SO WITH THAT YIELD TO OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. MR. NO. ANYBODY ELSE OK THEN SLOWLY JUST POPPED UP AS I SAID THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE THAT YOU

114CALLED MYSELF AND THE OTHER MEMBERS AND ATTEMPTED TO FIND SOLUTIONS WITHIN VOLUNTEERING OF THE COMMITTEE AND I AM NOT SURPRISED THAT THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS SAID THAT WE ARE WORKING ON THINGS AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM THROUGH WITH MAYBE FOUR TO FIVE MEETINGS LEFT FOR THIS YEAR WHILE I HAVE NO PROBLEM WORKING WITH ANY PERSON ON THE BOARD AND HAVE WORKED WELL IN COMMITTEES WITH MISS MANNING, MISS ANDERSON, MISS BROWN ALTOGETHER INDEPENDENTLY I DO THINK THAT SOME OF THE POLICIES THAT WE ARE LOOKING AT AND TALKING ABOUT HAVE INFORMATION THAT WE RECEIVED ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION AND INTERACTIONS ABOUT AT OUR RETREAT AND I THINK IT'S YOU KNOW, IT WAS UNFORTUNATE THERE WERE OTHER CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. MISS MANNING WASN'T ABLE TO BE AT THE RETREAT AT I AM IN FAVOR OF LEAVING THE COMMITTEE AS IT

115AS IT STANDS AND ALLOWING THE MEMBERS WHO'VE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER ON THESE POLICIES TO COMPLETE IT FOR THESE NEXT FOUR TO HAVE MEETINGS AND SEEING WHERE THINGS GO FROM SO I WILL BE WILL BE VOTING AGAINST THE SUBSTITUTE. THANK THIS YEAR WELL I KNEW THIS KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN I PREDICTED THAT THERE WOULD BE CONSTITUENTS WHO CAME AND SPOKE ON THIS MANNING'S BEHALF TONIGHT I PREDICTED THAT BUT I WILL SAY THAT THE CURRENT MAKE UP THE COMMITTEE WORKS WELL TOGETHER. WE BASICALLY HAVE FIVE MORE MEETINGS LEFT AND I'D LIKE TO FINISH MY TIME ON THE COMMITTEE AND ITEM ON THE BOARD WITH THIS WITH THIS COMMITTEE THERE ARE SOME POLICIES WERE WORKING ON THAT I'D LIKE TO COMPLETED BEFORE I LEAVE THE BOARD IN DECEMBER MY DEDICATION AND COMMITMENT TO THIS BOARD AND

116THE POLICY COMMITTEE IS UNWAVERING AND I THINK ALL OF YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THAT I HAVE NEVER MISSED A MEETING. I ZOOM ONE OF THE PRC MEETINGS ONE TIME WHEN I WAS VISITING MY GRANDCHILDREN IN TAMPA BUT I BASICALLY HAVE MY LIFE PLANNED AROUND WHEN THE MEETINGS I DON'T PLAN DOCTORS APPOINTMENTS WHEN ANOTHER'S APEC MEETING APRC MEETING I DON'T PLAN ANYTHING WHEN THERE'S ONE OF OUR MEETINGS I'M DEDICATED AND COMMITTED TO THE BOARD AND TO THE COMMITTEES I'M ON ALL POLICIES ARE VOTED ON BY THE FULL BOARD SO FOR ANYONE TO ACCUSE ME OF BRINGING MY OWN AGENDA TO THE PRC THAT REFLECTS MY MY PRIORITIES. THAT'S JUST FALSE IT'S ABSOLUTELY FALSE AND WAS SLANDEROUS THE WAY WAS PRESENTED TONIGHT BY ONE OF OUR CONSTITUENTS I DO BRING THE PERSPECTIVE OF A CLASSROOM TEACHER I BRING

117THAT PERSPECTIVE OF A CLASSROOM TEACHER TO THE BOARD AND I BRING THAT PERSPECTIVE OF A CLASSROOM TEACHER TO THE PRC COMMITTEE MANY TIMES WHEN WE HAVE DISCUSSIONS AND THAT'S WHAT WE DO IN THE PRC BECAUSE WE DISCUSS THINGS, WE DISCUSS POLICIES I. I THINK MY COLLEAGUES KNOW MY COMMITMENT DEDICATION TO THIS BOARD IS UNWAVERING. I'VE ATTENDED MEETINGS EVEN WHAT I COULD BARELY WALK WITH MY FAMILY VACATIONS AROUND TIMES THAT WE DON'T HAVE PLANNED MEETINGS OR RETREATS I EVEN SCHEDULE DOCTORS DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENTS AROUND SCHEDULE MEETINGS AND BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO SHOW UP TO BE THERE BECAUSE STAFF HAS PREPARED AND I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR OF ASKING STAFF TO PREPARE THINGS FOR US AND THEN FOR US TO JUST NOT SHOW UP FOR WHATEVER REASON IF YOU'RE SICK THAT'S DIFFERENT. DO YOU

118HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER THAT'S THAT'S DIFFERENT BUT DIFFERENT BUT I DON'T PLAN TO BE OUT ON PURPOSE. THEREFORE I'M ASKING MY COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT ME ON THIS VOTE BY VOTING NO AGAINST THIS THIS BECAUSE YOU KNOW I WOULD LIKE TO FINISH MY TIME ON THE BOARD ON THE PRC COMMITTEE AND I ASKED MY COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT ME ON THIS AND TO VOTE AGAINST THIS WHAT MR. WEEMS HAS BROUGHT FORWARD. THANK YOU OK SO, SO I SEE NO OTHER COLLEAGUES IN THE QUEUE AND SO THE SUBSTITUTE MOTION SECONDED BY MR.
